About this listen
'Witty and ingeniously plotted with twist after brilliant twist. I loved it!' CLAIRE DOUGLAS
Even on the most desirable street, there's a dark side . . .
The Hill is the kind of place everyone wants to live: luxurious, exclusive and safe. But now someone is breaking and entering these Cheshire homes one by one, and DS Leo Brady suspects the burglar is looking for something, or someone, in particular.
Over the border in Wales, DC Ffion Morgan recovers the body of an estate agent from the lake. There's no love lost between Ffion and estate agents, but who hated this one enough to want her dead - and why?
As their cases collide, Ffion and Leo discover people will pay a high price to keep their secrets behind closed doors . . .

Critic Reviews
PRAISE FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S HOUSES
Witty and ingeniously plotted with twist after brilliant twist, Other People's Houses is a thriller that keeps you guessing, gasping and grinning in equal measure. I loved it! (CLAIRE DOUGLAS)
It's an absolute delight to read the latest in the DC Ffion Morgan series. This time we follow DC Ffion Morgan and DS Leo Brady on a fresh case that plunges them into the heart of a mystery in an exclusive community. Skilfully plotted, sharply paced, and wickedly funny, this is a must-read crime series. I'm already looking forward to the next instalment! (LUCY CLARKE)
A gripping, intense, and thought-provoking story of betrayal, that explores the fragility of trust (KARIN SLAUGHTER)
Other People's Houses is funny, entertaining and unguessable with a fabulous cast of deeply authentic characters and beautiful writing that immerses the reader in every scene. Clever and compelling (RUTH MANCINI)
Social climbing and property envy provide the background to Clare Mackintosh's clever new novel . . . Mackintosh clearly relishes writing about the pretensions of the well-off residents and the stratagems of an outsider who wants to be accepted into their Whatsapp group . . . a stunning denouement
A satisfyingly twisty and thoroughly characterful police procedural
Another complete page-turner
This thriller has you on the edge of your seat
Another cracking DC Morgan mystery
You're in for a rollercoaster ride
A clever whodunnit
A welcome sense of authenticity . . . Full of social observations, this novel plots a course between the absurdities of modern cosy crime writing and the excessive brutality of the toughest of noir fiction
For fans of the DC Ffion Morgan series, this is an auto-buy

Another engrossing, meaty, intertwining story in the series. A cut above most detective fiction. I'm quite sad to finish, anticipating that the next book is a year away!
Excellent - loved it!!!
