About this listen

A chilling psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page – from the bestselling author of The Trap.

Several years ago, your husband, and the father of your young son, disappeared. Since then, you've dreamed of his return; railed against him for leaving you alone; grieved for your marriage; and, finally, vowed to move on.

One morning, the phone rings. When you answer, a voice at the other end tells you your husband's on a plane bound for home, and that you'll see him tomorrow.

You've imagined this reunion countless times. Of course you have. But nothing has prepared you for the reality. For you realize you don't know this man.

Because he isn't your husband, he's a complete stranger – and he's coming home with you.

Even worse, he seems to know about something very bad you once did, something no one else could possibly know about . . . Could they?

The Stranger Upstairs is another dazzling, dizzying psychological thriller from Melanie Raabe, the bestselling author of The Trap, guaranteed to grip you from the first page to the last.

Critic Reviews

Had me hooked from the start. Linda’s story unravels so cleverly, and Raabe keeps you questioning what’s fact and what’s not right to the end, ratcheting up the tension at the same time . . . A genuinely gripping debut (Debbie Howells, author of The Bones of You, on The Trap)
A very clever, mind-bending thriller (Woman & Home on The Trap)
You won’t be able to resist (Elle on The Trap)
