Suspects

The emotionally gripping Sunday Times bestseller from Britain’s favourite storyteller




The enthralling new novel from the 10-million-copy, No. 1 bestselling author

When Nina and Conrad move into their new home in Willow Close a body is discovered.
Hurrying inside, they see horrified neighbours gather by the police cordon - one of the residents has been attacked and brutally killed in the woods.
Believing someone must have seen the murderer, the police interview all the residents and soon find out that each neighbour harbours their own secrets.
They are far from what they initially seem and strange, even dark, things happen behind their closed doors.
Nina and Conrad had thought they'd found their dream neighbourhood. But have they moved into a nightmare?

About the author

Lesley Pearse

Lesley Pearse was brought up in South London in various orphanages from the age of three. She learned about the Soho club scene and the music business during the Sixties with the late John Pritchard. Her novels have sold over ten million copies worldwide. Lesley has three daughters and three grandchildren and lives in Bristol.

Lesley Pearse was told as a child that she had too much imagination for her own good. When she grew up she worked her way through a number of jobs, including nanny, bunny girl, dressmaker and full-time mother before, at the age of forty-nine, settling upon a career that would allow her gifts to blossom: she became a published writer. Lesley now lives just outside Bristol. She has three daughters and two grandchildren.
