Critics Review

Kara uses the old box of tricks so effectively, misdirecting your attention with expert cunning and then biffing you on the back of the head with her twists.

Startlingly original … It’s hard to think of a recent novel than can match Kara’s for an almost unbearable level of suspense. * Sunday Times *A satisfying thriller that oozes with menace. * Woman’s Own *A powerful, compelling tale about dark secrets that won’t stay buried, with a palpable sense of dread that builds on every page * T. M. Logan, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE HOLIDAY, THE CATCH and TRUST ME *I loved this absorbing, twisty mystery - Lesley Kara has done it again! * Shari Lapena, Sunday Times bestselling author of THE COUPLE NEXT DOOR *Twisty and tense, another great read from Lesley Kara. * B.A. Paris, bestselling author of THE THERAPIST *Lesley returns with her best thriller yet - The Apartment Upstairs is the sort of read that will have you listening out for creaks in the floorboards from other rooms. A perfect blend of complex, human characters and unrelenting suspense. Lesley Kara is incomparable. * Jack Jordan, author of DO NO HARM *THE APARTMENT UPSTAIRS is taut, tense, dark and claustrophobic with a creeping sense of menace and a cast of compelling characters. I gulped it down in two sittings. * Gilly Macmillan, bestselling author of THE NANNY and THE LONG WEEKEND *A twisted plot to get my teeth into, believable well written characters and loads of nail-biting suspense. Loved it! * Emma Curtis, author of INVITE ME IN *Clever and twisty with some brilliant examination of loyalties between friends and within families. * Catherine Cooper, author of THE CHALET *Lesley Kara always delivers. The Apartment Upstairs is a brilliantly written, immersive thriller that draws readers into a twisty world of secrets and murder, and doesn’t let go until the very last page. Highly recommended. * Adam Hamdy, bestselling author of PENDULUM *
