It's past midnight, but Connie Bowskill can't sleep. To pass time, she logs on to a real estate website in search of a particular house, one she is obsessed with for reasons she's too scared to even admit to herself. As she clicks through the virtual tour, she comes across a scene from a nightmare: a woman lying facedown on the living room floor in a pool of blood. But when she returns to show her husband, there is no body, no blood -- just a perfectly ordinary room. With plot twists that will keep readers up all night The Other Woman's House is another unforgettable story by a new master of the crime novel. Sophie Hannah is the author of seven internationally bestselling and award-winning psychological thrillers - Little Face, The Truth-Teller's Lie, The Wrong Mother, The Dead Lie Down, The Cradle in the Grave, The Other Woman's House, and Kind of Cruel (British title - not available in the US yet). Her novels are published in 20 countries, with more foreign rights deals under negotiation. The Dead Lie Down is currently shortlisted for a Barry Award.
