In Willow Close, everyone is a suspect . . .

On the day Nina and Conrad Best move into their new home in picture-perfect Willow Close, a body is discovered.

Hurrying inside, they see horrified residents gather around a police cordon - one of their neighbours has been brutally killed in the woods.

As police interview witnesses, they soon discover each resident hiding their own secrets. Because few in the Close are exactly who they seem.

Nina and Conrad thought they'd found their dream home.

But have they moved into a nightmare?

About the Author

Lesley Pearse

International bestselling author Lesley Pearse has lived a life as rich with incidents, setbacks and joys as any found in her novels. Resourceful, determined and willing to have a go at almost anything, Lesley left home at sixteen. By the mid sixties she was living in London, sharing flats, partying hard and married to a trumpet player in a jazz-rock band. She has also worked as a nanny and a Playboy bunny, and designed and made clothes to sell to boutiques. It was only after having three daughters that Lesley began to write. The hardships, traumas, close friends and lovers from those early years were inspiration for her beloved novels. She published her first book at forty-nine and has not looked back since. Lesley is still a party girl.
