Someone in the Attic




Get ready for your new reading obsession - a break-out thriller from the No.1 bestselling author of No One Saw a Thing. Everyone has heard noises in the attic, but what if your worst fear came true?

Andrea Mara's previous novel, No One Saw a Thing, was a break-out bestseller:

- A No.1 bestseller in Kindle and in Ireland
- 13 weeks in the top 3 of the Original Fiction chart in Ireland
- 900% up on her previous book
- Shortlisted for Irish Crime Novel of the Year
- More than 100,000 copies sold in just thirteen weeks

Now she's back with your new obsession...

It could happen to you.
Anya is enjoying a relaxing bath when she hears a noise in the roof. Through the open bathroom door, she sees the attic hatch swing open, and a masked figure drops to the floor. Thirty seconds later, Anya is dead.

Even in a wealthy neighbourhood like this.
Across town, Anya's old school friend, Julia, sees an online video of a masked figure climbing out of an attic. She suddenly realises why the footage is eerily familiar: it was filmed inside her house in a luxury gated community, designed to keep intruders out.

Even with friends like these.
Why would a stranger target Julia? Unless of course, it's not a stranger at all.
