Critics Review
“Thompson is a master at sneaking us behind closed doors into the dark and devious world of rich suburbanites…The Neighbors Are Watching is her best work yet. Good fences aren’t enough to make good neighbors in this entitled world, but you’ll relish every second wondering who will get their just deserts. An exceptional thriller from a major talent.” –Alex Finlay, bestselling author of Parents Weekend
“With rich parents behaving badly, kids gone wild, and a deadly cover-up, The Neighbors Are Watching is a meticulously plotted, one-sitting binge read. Nobody scratches the veneer off suburban respectability like Thompson. You won’t look at your neighbors the same way again.” –K.T. Nguyen, Anthony Award-winning author of You Know What You Did
“Clever and timely with characters that leap off the page. Grabs you from page one and twists you around until the very last words–and that final reveal, whoa! I loved it!” –Jessie Garcia, author of The Business Trip
“Fast paced, clever and richly observed. Another masterpiece of domestic suspense from Thompson, who forges the anxieties of wealthy parents into an unputdownable thriller.” –Christine Gunderson, author of Friends with Secrets
