The book club was her idea, of course.

It was her way into our group. A chance to get close.

I knew from the day she arrived that she couldn''t be trusted.

And I was right.

Alice didn''t come to the village for peace and quiet.

She came for revenge.

Trade Review
I loved this book - tightly plotted, edge-of-seat gripping and likely to make you want to avoid book groups for the foreseeable future! -- Sophie Hannah
I raced through it - edgy, tense and wry with great foreshadowing. No one has ever asked me to join a book club - now I think it's for the best! -- Harriet Tyce
A dark, twisty, claustrophobic read. I love those locked room novels (albeit locked village in this case!) . . . A thrilling psychological debut
Intensely twisty * Peterborough Telegraph *
Just finished The Book Club and I for one am terrified of the woman next door! -- Louise Candlish
Intricately plotted, this gripping thriller is written with great style and has a host of wonderful characters to be loved and hated in equal measure
Smart, sassy . . . Midsomer Murders meets Desperate Housewives. Immensely entertaining, the growing sense of menace - of 'where have I seen you before?' - grips and chills in equal measures. An excellent confident debut!
An irresistible slow descent into darkness, with twist upon twist upon twist. C.J. Cooper's page-turner debut kept on surprising me right to the end. Brava!
A fabulous, page-turning read! Beautifully written and I loved the humour . . . Highly recommended!
Intuitive and addictive - a great debut
