The Woman Downstairs-Elisabeth Carpenter-Suspense Thriller
“Can you ever really know your neighbours?”
Sarah lives with her son in a block of flats. She is a journalist student and also works
at the local cafe to help pay the bills. On going out early one morning she finds the
police at the flat below hers- they have found a body which has apparently been there
for at least a couple of years. She thought the flat was empty. No one really knows
who lived there or whom the body may be. She picks up a piece of mail which has
blown from the flat and finds a name. Could this be the deceased person and why has
no one missed them in all that time? Laura lived with her father until he recently
died. She has to find a new job as his savings won’t go very far. Her mother left
several years ago and Laura hasn’t been out of the house for a long time herself.
We know she has some sort of secret but not quite what. Oooh! This got me
enveloped early on and kept me within its pages. I liked the tenacity of Sarah and
felt for the naivety of Laura. A cleverly thought out plot and wonderful
characters. A gripping read.
