‘A masterly slow-burn gripper’ Louise Candlish

‘Deliciously sly yet also profoundly moving – a twisty game of cat and mouse that keeps the reader guessing at every step’ JP Delaney

‘Pitch-perfect. I absolutely loved it’ Lucy Dawson

‘Elegant and astute, Finders Keepers is truly gripping’ Louise O’Neill

A brilliantly creepy and utterly mesmerising novel about the neighbours from hell, from the author of the bestselling Lie With Me.

One woman’s secret is her neighbour’s opportunity.

Ailsa Tilson moves with her husband and children to Trinity Fields in search of the new.
New project – a house to renovate. New people – no links to the past. New friends – especially her next-door neighbour, the lonely Verity, who needs her help.

Verity has lived in Trinity Fields all her life. She’s always resisted change. Her home and belongings are a shield, a defence to keep the outside world at bay. But something about the Tilsons piques her interest.

Just as her ivy creeps through the shared garden fence, so Verity will work her way into the Tilson family.

And once they realise how formidable she can be, it might well be too late.

Lucy Atkins
Incredible! So clever and compelling
Lucy Dawson
Pitch-perfect. I absolutely loved it
Clare Mackintosh
Riveting from the first page to the last. No one creates characters like Sabine Durrant. I was completely enthralled
Gill Hornby
Utterly immersive and compulsive. Pace, place, characters, plot ... It's a masterclass
Claire McGowan
Totally immersive, brilliantly written and creepily plausible
Mark Edwards
Extraordinary ... a beautifully written, gripping cross between Notes from a Scandal and Gone Girl, with a dash of Eleanor Oliphant. Ridiculously good
Marian Keyes
Completely WONDERFUL, her best book yet. I utterly loved it and could not put it down. Sabine has such a gift for those exquisite, telling details
The Sunday Times Crime Club
Seriously superior psychological thriller...the language is honed as sharp as a stiletto. The murder mystery is teased out to the very last compelling page
Saga
We have Verity's own word for it! Terrific (adj): extremely good, wonderful
Red
A taut thriller with layer upon layer of suspense and twists right to the very last page
Good Housekeeping
Well-paced thriller... Durrant builds a sense of menace and the ending is satisfying, with a believable twist
Best Magazine
A delicious study in dark psychology, a narrator to keep you guessing and a real emotional punch
Evening Standard
This summer's most anticipated thriller, Finders, Keepers is deliciously slow-burning and hard to put down. Fans of Durrant's previous novels will relish the smart twists and turns and will be left guessing until the very end
Daily Mail
This well-paced, intelligent mystery benefits from finely-drawn characters and convincing psychological tension. Durrant explores the vicious extremes of female behaviour and asks us to take a peek at the raging traumas behind the calm masks of suburban respectability
Woman
Suspenseful thriller. One not to miss
Mail on Sunday
A smart, compelling and thoroughly haunting read
The Independent
Chilling
Woman & Home Online

Engrossing psychological crime novel...the story plays with our sympathies and explores the boundary between devotion and resentment that exists in relationships of all kinds
The Observer
An intelligent, twisty psychological thriller
Fabulous
You think you know what's going on in this brilliant read, then you realise you so don't!
Evening Standard
Durrant gently reveals her delicate exploration of damaged relationships, fragile friendships, missed potential, and what happens when ambition governs the way you treat others (...) An absorbing, classy read to keep you guessing
Real People
A delicious study in dark psychology, this clever tale will keep you guessing
The Sunday Times
Reminiscent of Virago Classics and Alan Bennett monologues, it's an accomplished and addictive addition to the great British tradition of spinster fiction, and Verity - perceptive about many things, blind to others - could well turn out to be as rich a portrait as in any novel this year
Independent
This brilliantly plotted novel will keep you guessing until the very end
Sarah Vaughan
I loved it!
Dinah Jefferies
A compelling read that strikes a chill straight into your heart
