Summary

Dartmouth Circle is quiet and exclusive - just the way its residents want it to stay, especially arch busybody Sheila Colby. When she hears that the house next door to her has been bought for a student and four friends to rent, she is incandescent.

Nothing in this outwardly serene little cul-de-sac is quite as it seems - will the arrival of Madeleine 'Mad' Richmond and her friends bring seething tensions and dark secrets bubbling to the surface?

A lovely....

storyline from start to finish with some great characters and antics within the book. The narrator was very good at using different voices for the characters.

really lovely story

loved getting to know all the different people who live around the "circle". comings and goings of daily life and what goes on behind closed doors. also, the reviewer who said there was explicit sex scenes needs to get out more 😆. I imagine it was written a while ago, some bits are "of it's time" with regards to women and what's expected of them.

Perfect escapism

A great book.
Different from other books I have read by this author but just as enjoyable. Perfect escapism.

Disappointed so could not finish

Started this book expecting a book like the previous books by this author. There should be a warning about explicit sex. I would like a refund if possible. I would not have given any stars but could not submit without doing so
