Description: (content provided by the publisher)
Sally Hepworth wrote THE FAMILY NEXT DOOR while pregnant, and edited it with a newborn at her side. So, naturally, being relatively housebound, she spent a lot of time wondering what her neighbors were up to. The result of Hepworth’s guesswork is a more suspenseful, more propulsive, and more secret-laden book than anything she’s written before.
Hepworth’s suburban-set story centers on the people of Pleasant Court. There’s Essie, a young mother grappling with its constant demands. Her mother, Barbara, is the perfect grandmother to her two young daughters, doting, and there to help at the drop of a hat. But it’s new-to-the-neighborhood Isabelle who proves a breath of fresh air for Essie. Their budding friendship, while just what Essie needs, sounds the alarm for those close to her. Because Isabelle’s choice of neighborhood was no accident… Then there’s Ange. Is her photographer husband’s client just that, or something more? Fran, meanwhile, is keeping her husband at arm’s length. She made a regretful decision during a lull in their marriage, and is now struggling to cope with the consequences.
You may think you have the people of Pleasant Court all figured out, but Hepworth proves otherwise, throwing in some serious curveballs.
