About this listen

'Creepy as hell and kept me guessing to the very end' - Ian Rankin

A new home. A new start.

It’s all the Lockwoods want.
And on The Avenue, a leafy street in an Essex town near the sea, it seems possible.
But what if what they want isn’t what they get?

On their moving-in day they arrive to a media frenzy.
A serial killer has struck in the woods behind The Avenue.
The police are investigating.
And the neighbours quite clearly have secrets.

With their dream quickly turning into a nightmare, the Lockwoods are watching everyone.
But who’s watching them?

Critic reviews

She is the master of depicting the way the most terrifyingly grotesque and evil psychopaths inveigle their way into the lives of ordinary people [...] when writing from the perspective of ordinary people caught up in horrific events, Fiona Cummins is unbeatable. (Jake Kerridge)
The Neighbour is masterfully written and intricately plotted to keep the reader captivated until a hugely enjoyable finale. (Jon Coates)

So many different scenes, names n locations, hard to keep track.Narrator was very good.Decided to see the book out as I was 70% through it and would have been a waste not to see it through.

I really enjoyed this story and the dark secrets kept by some of the characters, most of which are not revealed until the end. If only the kitten hadn’t bitten the dust, I might have sympathised.

So many secrets

I have listened to many books, mainly thrillers and this book, both the excellent writing and the outstanding narration is most definitely in my top 5. Amazing. I couldn't stop listening and then towards the end I stopped for a while as I was so desperate to listen to the end but didn't want it to end. It was so hard to wait and I admit, I didn't wait very long at all in the end. Listen to it please, it's quality. What on earth do I listen to next???

One of the best books that I have listened to
