Nothing gets me giddier than a crime fiction novel that requires the I couldn’t have asked for more, really, and feel so proud that readers are continuing to discover it and recommend it far and wide. THE HEIGHTS is my latest paperback - it's a twisty revenge thriller whose narrator, Ellen, has a strange fear of heights known as 'high place phenomenon'. Oh, and lets invite a homeless colleague in to our home, who happens to be pregnant, without discussing it first. Alex is living his best suburban lief with Beth until the creation of a nature trail is announced, threatening to expose decades-old secrets.Alex is not at all convinced that Zara Lloyd’s predicament is genuine, and wonders what her true agenda might be. The twists keep on coming and coming especially towards the end and as per usual Louise Candlish has me perched on the edge of my seat, super glued to the dramatic events of the plot.

The story switches from the present, when the imminent opening of a nature trail in the leafy London suburb of Silver Vale is filling Alex with dread, to 1995, when the young city auditor Rick begins an affair with the fragile and mysterious Marina, a temp with eyes the colour of sea glass who works in a nearby office.This book unfolds in the present via Alex (over several months as the walking trail starts being cleared) and in 1995, again over several months via Rick, in his mid 20s who falls for Marina, a mysterious young woman he sees in a cafe.
