Alice only meant to stop the intruder.
She didn't mean to hit him so hard.
She didn't mean to kill him.
The police conclude that she acted in self-defence, but wracked with guilt, Alice sets out to apologise to Linda, the mother of the young man she killed - only to find she is unable to come clean about who she really is.
Without meaning to, Alice finds herself drawn more and more into Linda's world, struggling to balance her growing obsession with starting a prestigious new job, caring for her daughter and being there for her husband.
But as Alice learns more about Ezra - and finds herself uncomfortably enmeshed with his family - she begins to wonder whether she really has the full picture about why he came to her house that day.
This latest simmering suspense novel from the internationally bestselling Katherine Faulkner is an unputdownable must-read that will have you hooked from the first twist to the last.

Recenzii
Delicious
Fast-moving, clever and appropriately horrible, this is domestic noir at its most intriguing
It's been described as a binge read and it's clear to see why - a fantastic novel
Will have listeners hooked
Katherine Faulkner is the master of throwing ordinary women into extraordinary, what-would-you-do situations. With her razor-sharp takes on middle class motherhood, this is an up-all-night thriller packed with style, acuity and intrigue
Twisty and compulsively readable. A binge-worthy page turner. I devoured it in a sitting and I have zero regrets
Katherine Faulkner goes from strength to strength with her third novel, The Break In - a truly unnerving tale of violence and deceit. I totally believed in these characters and felt every second of their nightmare. Propulsive and immersive - a definite one-sitting read!
With an exquisite, perfectly timed drip-feed of reveals, hiding-in-plain-sight clues, delicious unravelling of secrets, and nail-biting tension, The Break In is an absolute triumph. One of the best books I've read this year
The Break In opens with a reader's worst nightmare scenario, and continues to twist the knife as the truth is gradually revealed. A tense and clever thriller - highly recommended
Katherine Faulkner is the mistress of elevated thrillers, and The Break In is her most sophisticated yet. Taut, elegant and perfectly observed, she will have your nerves jangling and your sense of self shattered. Her depiction of North London middle class motherhood is sharply accurate - a morality tale of the most terrifying order. Fabulous
A fast-paced, single sitting read with a how-did-I miss that final twist. Faulkner writes motherhood noir that's a cut above - we'll be recommending this to every parent in the playground. Loved it!
The Break-In has Katherine's trademark aspirational London living hallmarks, plus a clever twisty plot and evocative writing on motherhood and female friendship. Loved it!
I was kept up until the wee hours engrossed in The Break In. A delicious slow burn thriller with a clever twisting plot that will keep readers hooked
The Break In is a masterfully twisted psychological thriller. When a self-defense killing sets Alice's life spiraling, long-buried secrets resurface, and collide with present-day dangers. Faulkner weaves a gripping, character-driven tale brimming with taut tension and shocking twists - her best yet!
PRAISE FOR KATHERINE FAULKNER: 'Her real gift is for observing the currents beneath apparent surface perfection, and what the middle class is capable of when it can't have it all'
PRAISE FOR KATHERINE FAULKNER: 'I can't wait to read what Faulkner writes next'
PRAISE FOR KATHERINE FAULKNER: 'I was gripped by The Other Mothers and Katherine's immersive writing'
