He's been looking in the windows again. Messing with cameras. Leaving notes.
Supposed to be a refuge. But death got inside.
When Katie Straw's body is pulled from the waters of the local suicide spot, the police decide it's an open-and-shut case. A standard-issue female suicide.
But the residents of Widringham women's refuge where Katie worked don't agree. They say it's murder.
Will you listen to them?
An addictive literary page-turner about a crime as shocking as it is commonplace, KEEPER will leave you reeling long after the final page is turned.

Recenzii
Jess Moor's debut novel made me want to shout out in anger
Jess Moor is a new young writer I believe in
Still have a Girl on the Train-shaped hole in your life? Add KEEPER to your list
Tense, beautiful and lyrical. Everyone should read this book
A literary thriller, KEEPER is a compelling, tense and pacy read
Keeper is wickedly paced and utterly chilling, making space for the interior lives of its victims and their gradually shrinking worlds, all the while exposing the failures of the systems that are supposed to protect them. As compulsive as it is heartbreaking
Reading Keeper is a visceral experience ... cleverly reminding us that for some women simply existing in a man's world is more dangerous than anything else
Extraordinary and compelling
Intense and compassionate . . . it made me furious and sad, but it also made me feel seen
Pacy, absorbing and electric in its detail, Keeper is compassionately, furiously true. Men should read this book, and I'd be shocked to meet a woman who doesn't find some part of herself here
This is a thriller, but its pacy insights into the ways in which men exert control over women make it one that you need to read
A timely and thought provoking novel that explores issues of power and control with a sensitive and deft touch
Male violence in all its forms is at the heart of Jessica Moor's confident and skilful debut
Made me rage and weep and understand a little better. A powerful book telling stories that need to be heard
An addictive, powerful read and a hugely original novel from a fresh new voice in crime fiction
Powerful and chilling, with a shocking twist, Keeper is an important story, well told
A deeply affecting and important addition to the thriller genre, Keeper explores the escalating horrors of domestic abuse with rare insight and skill. Jessica Moor is destined to become a serious voice on the crime scene
Vastly impressive . . . Deeply affecting and superbly told, it demands to be read
Sharp, incisive writing, and frighteningly believable characters. And what a twist . . .
Disturbing, gripping and illuminating - a page-turner that shines a light into a dark corner of our world
Keeper is extraordinary. Humane, compelling, and absolutely furious in the best possible way. I read the last chapters with my hand clapped over my mouth
For a fictional account this book speaks many truths. The end may shock, but the brutal reality is that this is happening and the most haunting fact is that we are not talking about it
