The Woman Downstairs
reviews‘Hi,’ she says, ‘I’m your new neighbour.’ Her smile is bright but her shoulders are tense as she stands on the leafy green Edinburgh street. She seems friendly. But soon I’ll discover her dangerous secret…
On the first day I meet my new neighbour, we share a glass of wine and talk into the night. We swap numbers and I vow to get to know her better. But as I get closer to her, I discover something about her past that changes everything. She isn’t who I thought she was.
Then when I step into her home, my jaw drops. Everything in here is identical to my own flat – every cushion, every picture on the wall.
Except for the knife, covered in blood. My heart pounds in my chest. What has she done? What is she capable of?
I should never have come here. I should never have got close to her. I need to run.
But then I hear a creak outside the door. And I realise, it may be too late…
