Summary
Home is where the nightmare is. The number one international best seller everyone can't stop talking about.
Beautiful double room to let to single person.
Lisa, a troubled young woman with a past, can’t believe her luck when she finds a beautiful room to rent in a large house. The live-in owners are a kind and welcoming couple. Everything is fine until she finds a suicide note hidden in her room. But when the couple insist this man didn’t exist and that Lisa is their first tenant, Lisa begins to doubt herself.
Compelled to uncover the secrets of the man who lived in the room before her, Lisa is alarmed when increasingly disturbing incidents start to happen. Someone doesn’t want Lisa to find out the truth.
As the four walls of this house and its secrets begin to close in on Lisa, she descends into a hellish hall of mirrors where she’s not sure what’s real and what’s not as she claws her way towards the truth....
This room has already claimed one victim.
Is it about to take another?

Absolutely First Class Thriller
This book with the unpromising title turned out to be a first class thriller. With revelations coming along at regular intervals it became so much more than a story about a spare room with a past. We had characters we could believe in and empathise with. Much helped by Kristin Atherton's excellent narration.
In a bit more detail, Lisa Kendall (25) rents a top floor room in a big house in London. She soon finds that the room and the landlords aren't everything they seemed before she moved in and she is not as comfortable in her room as she hoped that she might be. We gradually learn that the room has a past, the landlords, Lisa, Lisa's parents, previous occupants of the house all have a past.
I thoroughly recommend this book to anybody looking for a good psychological thriller.

disappointing
Started off well. Trouble was it dragged on. I guessed the plot in the beginning and just wanted it all over. In fact I rushed the ending. Why oh why did she drink the bottle of water when she knew what it contained? Especially disappointing was when Lisa read out the remaining translation from the wall. It went on and on. How many walls had John written on?
No suspense and a lot of waffle.

Not For Me
I’m returning this one. The narration is ok but the book dragged on and on. I couldn’t warm to the main character and am not in the mood to wait it out and see if it gets better!
