About this listen

In this mesmerising thriller from the bestselling author of Keep Her Secret, a family’s fresh start is just the beginning of their nightmare…

Ethan Dove’s family has moved to a new home in a safe community, and it’s exactly the fresh start they need. Not only is his marriage to Emma hanging by a thread, but his son, Dylan, and twelve-year-old daughter, Rose, deserve to have a happy childhood.

After Rose is bullied by the boys across the road, Ethan is relieved when the woman who lives next door steps in. Fiona Smith has come into their lives at just the right moment, and when she offers to look after Rose during the school holidays, Ethan and Emma can’t believe their luck.

Which is exactly what Fiona wants. Because, far from being the perfect neighbour, Fiona is the last person you should trust with your child. With a vicious plot for revenge, Fiona is happy to train Rose to be her accomplice, especially when she begins to suspect that Rose might not be as innocent as she appears…

The Psychopath Next Door is a gripping and twisted psychological suspense thriller set in the terrifying world of Mark Edwards’s bestselling The Magpies universe.

Critic reviews

“Each chapter pulses with unsettling tension and never relents until predator and prey reach their final, chilling conclusion.”—John Marrs

“Sinister, creepy, and utterly gripping—I could not stop reading. And that ending! My jaw hit the floor.”—Ruth Kelly

Most relevant

I gave up about 90mins in as couldn't focus on the story due to the ridulous character voices. I found them very distracting - particularly Fiona, but also other characters that sounded like bad comedic caricatures. I may go back to the book another time and read it, but can't listen to the audio book.
