Signed by Author. Book is unread, all pages are intact and uncreased (with attractive yellow edges). Dust cover shows some shelfwear on to and bottom of front edges - hence overall condition is listed as fine. Description: "The discovery of a bludgeoned body in a submerged vehicle in upstate New York throws the community into chaos, with the prime suspect being Amanda Pierce's husband, Robert. In Shari Lapena's "Someone We Know," a teenager's sneaking into houses--and into the owners' computers as well lead to anonymous apology letters, stirring suspicion and fear in a seemingly idyllic suburban community, culminating in a murder that unravels secrets and exposes hidden truths.".

‘A masterful whodunnit, perfectly paced and expertly plotted, that had me guessing all the way through. I loved it and couldn't put it down.’ C L Taylor
The gripping new thriller from the No. 1 bestselling author of The Couple Next Door.
******
It can be hard keeping secrets in a tight-knit neighbourhood.
In a tranquil, leafy suburb of ordinary streets – one where everyone is polite and friendly – an anonymous note has been left at some of the houses.
‘I’m so sorry. My son has been getting into people’s houses. He’s broken into yours.’
Who is this boy, and what might he have uncovered? As whispers start to circulate, suspicion mounts.
And when a missing local woman is found murdered, the tension reaches breaking point. Who killed her? Who knows more than they’re telling? And how far will all these very nice people go to protect their secrets?
Maybe you don’t know your neighbour as well as you thought you did . . .
