About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

PEOPLE ARE CAPABLE OF ALMOST ANYTHING.

You never know what's happening on the other side of the wall.

Your neighbour told you that she didn't want your six-month-old daughter at the dinner party. Nothing personal, she just couldn't stand her crying.

Your husband said it would be fine. After all, you only live next door. You'll have the baby monitor and you'll take it in turns to go back every half hour.

Your daughter was sleeping when you checked on her last. But now, as you race up the stairs in your deathly quiet house, your worst fears are realized. She's gone.

You've never had to call the police before. But now they're in your home, and who knows what they'll find there.

What would you be capable of, when pushed past your limit?

'Meticulously crafted and razor-sharp. THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR lingers long after you turn the final page' HARLAN COBEN

A page turner

I struggled a bit with the narrator on this one. Once I got used to her voice it wasn't too bad but the 'he said' 'she said' grated after a while. However, that aside, I decided to stick with it as I really wanted to know what happened and overall the story was very good.

Good... but

This story just went on and on with the twists and turns. It didn't leave you a chance to breathe. However it seemed rushed and all over the place, with random details popping up from nowhere especially near the end. It sounded like the author was trying to finish too quickly. But I did like the final ending. A little too extreme in terms of the plot for my liking and little clarity.

Too rushed at the end, loose details
