ByPublisher Description
“A twisty whodunit” (Cosmopolitan) about a shocking murder in a picturesque and well-to-do English town from the #1 New York Times and Sunday Times (London) bestselling author of the None of This Is True.
You’re back home after four years working abroad, new husband in tow. You’re keen to find a place of your own. But for now, you’re crashing in your big brother’s spare room.
That’s when you meet the man next door. He’s the head teacher at the local school. Twice your age. Extraordinarily attractive.
You find yourself watching him. All the time. But you never dreamed that your innocent crush might become a deadly obsession.
Or that someone is watching you.
In Lisa Jewell’s latest “spine-tingling thriller” (Real Simple), no one is who they seem—and everyone has something to hide. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Ruth Ware, Watching You will keep you guessing as “Jewell teases out her twisty plot at just the right pace” (Booklist, starred review) until the startling revelations on the very last page.

3.5
“I was not super impressed. It felt like the twist/reveal was made up first and then a story to obfuscate it. It was forced and kind of irritating to know the different parts were really just misleading.
Also- having neurodivergence is not a plot device. It’s lazy and ableist.”
