House hunting is a special kind of hell.

After a year and a half, and more failed bids than she cares to count, Margo is officially losing it. Then, a tip-off: a perfect house, off-market, that Margo just knows will save her and Ian’s marriage, and get her life, career and plan to have a baby back on track.

A little stalking? Harmless! A bit of trespassing? Necessary! But when Margo’s scheming hits a snag, she is pushed to her breaking point. As her methods get increasingly unhinged, it’s clear that nothing is off limits. It’s not her fault she’s just doing what it takes.

'Not since Gone Girl have I been so gripped' Alex Michaelides, author of The Silent Patient

'A twisty domestic thriller' Lottie Hazell, author of Piglet

What an absolutely insane, sometimes obscene and ludicrously entertaining and original novel. I felt every emotion available while reading Best Offer Wins: horrified, scared, excited, obsessed, humoured, delighted, concerned and of course, entirely gripped. You know it’s a great book when you’re rooting for someone who should not be supported for their rights or their wrongs. Marisa Kashino is a genius and I cannot wait to – inevitably – read this book all over again.

Ore Agbaje-Williams, author of The Three of Us
