A MUST for your TBR list! Fast-paced! Riveting! Exciting! Addictive! Chilling! Not only is this a very well-written book with wonderfully-interesting characters, but the suspense builds at just the right pace as the story unfolds. It was an artful melding of twisted thrills and heart-pounding action that kept me hanging on every word the whole way!

*I received a complimentary ARC of this book in order to read and provide a voluntary, unbiased and honest review, should I choose to do so.

A great read, could be improved with a few tweaks in the story but over all it was a great simple storyline easy to follow.

This book starts off slowly and surely.... and then it packs a punch that leaves the reader thrilled until the end. I have only just discovered Jo Crow's books, and can't wait to pack them all in! Recommended.

This book is about a new couple who just bought their dream house in a suburban neighborhood, and are expecting their first baby. The neighbors all come around welcoming them to the neighborhood, and one of them announces that they live next to a sex offender. After that, weird stuff starts happening, and Holly feels as if she is being stalked.
I was just kind of bored with this book, saw a lot of twists happening, and not super impressed with the writing style either. Maybe I'm just burnt out on thrillers.

This was quite the thrilling story! Once twist and turn after another made it difficult to stop reading once I started! There were many twists and turns. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good thriller!

Holly is a new mom, in a new house, in a totally new neighborhood, having recently moved from downtown Chicago to the suburbs. At first everything is wonderful. Her neighbors seem friendly, her husband is helping out with the new baby and her new home is fabulous. But little by little, odd things start happening, and eventually she realizes that it isn't all in her head.

This was an interesting and gripping read which took some unexpected turns. I enjoyed this well written suspense novel and absolutely recommend it.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author Jo Crow, and the publisher Relay Publishing for the opportunity to read an ARC of this very enjoyable book.

When someone is messing with your life, you fight with everything you have. Holy has a perfect life, moved into a perfect neighborhood, but in the end, not everything is so perfect.

This was a great read with a fascinating plotline. "The Perfect Neighborhood" was my first book by Jo Crow and I am interested to read the first two books in the 'Secrets of Suburbia' series - 'A Mother's Lie' and 'Found Child'.

This story was developed well and it was nicely paced, with many twists and turns throughout. I was very excited to see how it all ended.

I received a complimentary digital copy of this novel, at my own request, from Relay Publishing via NetGalley. This review is my own unbiased opinion.

I received an ARC of this book in return for an honest review.

This is a real page turner and leaves you guessing. A young couple moves into what they believe to be the perfect neighborhood. It goes downhill from there. It was a bit long, but that wasn't a major issue. A good psychological, crime thriller.

This was an entertaining read. I really enjoyed reading this book and found it difficult to put down at times. I found the plot interesting and the characters had good substance to them. I would read other titles by this author and would reccomend this book for others to read.

Part of a series, this is a really good book! It has some suspense and is filled with emotional themes. The characters are very strong and the page turning is addictive. You want to find out what is coming next.

Enjoyable and a fun read!

The story caught my eye from the moment I read the blurb, and I just knew I wanted to read this book. I was not let down and can recommend this to everyone!

A solid thriller. While the twist was fairly predictable, I really enjoyed the journey to get there. The plot was fun, the characters were interesting, and I will definitely keep an eye out for more Jo Crow books.

I was browsing netgalley on a whim one afternoon and came across this novel in the read now section, the blurb sounded exactly up my street so I thought there’s no harm in giving it a try and I’m so glad I did, it was absolutely fantastic, seat gripping and engaging.

Another new author for me but I will definitely be reading more from this author. Holly and mike move out of the city buy a a beautiful house then their daughter is born everything should be perfect . Things start happening, Mike is never there and doesn’t believe her . Is she making things up or is there really someone out there to get her . Theo’s book is definitely a page turner it was brilliant from start to finish .

This is a fabulous book especially for those who are looking for a story that is instantly engrossing this captivating novel ticks all the boxes. Don't be fooled by the sedate opening scenes - this little nugget packs a wallop that has a few surprising twists and turns that will satisfy the best of arm-chair detectives .!

Third book in series - enjoyed this one just as much, perhaps even more, than the other two. Getting to know the neighborhood means getting to know its secrets. Fast paced and easy to read.

Also have a copy through kindle unlimited
