About this listen

All Naya and Jake want is their own home. That's not too much to ask, right?

'Shot with dark humour … an unexpected but highly relatable story that captures the housing crisis in all its messiness' Stylist

‘A wildly original, darkly funny love story about desperation, house prices, and making terrible decisions together. Most Wanted is criminally good’ Steve Jones

'Most Wanted somehow makes the headache of first-time home ownership a gripping, pacy and funny story, loaded with twists and turns that keep you guessing right up to that gut punch ending. I loved it' Dawn O'Porter

*****

All Naya and Jake want is their own home. An island in the kitchen. A wine cooler, maybe… Nothing fancy really.

With artisanal coffee shops and microbreweries popping up on every corner, prices are skyrocketing. And as Jake and Naya tour property after property, one thing becomes clear: unless they want to share their home with black mould, they need to find a way to make the market crash. And fast.

There’s only one thing for it: they're going to have to take matters into their own hands. But how far are they willing to go?

*****

‘Fresh, original and absolutely brimming with energy. One of the very best crime capers I’ve read in a LONG time’ Jonathan Whitelaw

'The protagonists' desperation for affordable housing is completely relatable for anyone who has tried to buy a house this century. This book was quick, funny, and captured the very real financial struggles of the moment' Tasha Coryell

‘A brilliantly funny and twisty thriller. As dark as it is hilarious, with relatable characters that you really care about, this book really delves into the dark world of gentrification and property while still being a wonderfully entertaining ride of a book’ Kate Weston

‘I tore through this hilarious, twisty and poignant story of two people desperate for a home of their own. It's a must read for anyone who's ever bought a property… or dreamt about doing so. A fabulous takedown of our national obsession with home ownership.’ Lauren Schott

'A deliciously fresh take on the housing market, terrific fun' Ian Moore
