Autor Katherine Faulkneren Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 iun 2026
Alice didn't mean to kill the intruder. She only meant to stop him hurting her daughter when he burst into her kitchen and grabbed a knife.
The police agree 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. But nothing unfolds as planned. Alice can't bring herself to tell Linda who she really is and the more Alice learns about Ezra and why he was at her house, the more she starts to wonder whether she has the full picture about what happened that terrible day.
The new must-read thriller from the rising star of smart suspense fiction.

Recenzii
The superficial perfection of middle-class lives is Katherine Faulkner's territory. the comeuppance when it arrives is pleasingly satisfying
Fast-moving, clever and appropriately horrible, this is domestic noir at its most intriguing
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
It's been described as a binge read and it's clear to see why - it's a fantastic novel
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 cut above - we'll be recommending this to every parent in the playground. 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'
Hair-raising thriller
Will have listeners hooked
