Buyer Beware but reader, delight: Catherine Ryan Howard has crafted another perfect thriller. The satisfyingly twisty narrative will keep you baffled and on the edge of your seat right up to the gripping end. Intensely relatable, astute and funny, Buyer Beware draws on our worst fears and vainest hopes to tell a story that's full of contemporary Irish resonance but effortlessly universal. A triumph from one of Ireland's very best writers * Jane Casey, bestselling author of THE SECRET ROOM * Oh boy! This book was a wild ride. We all want a roof over our heads but maybe not at 1 Delaney Row. Masterfully told in two timelines, the occupants of this home have so many skeletons in their closets, and some of them are screaming to get out. Beautifully written, brilliantly entertaining, and brutally terrifying, this is Ryan Howard's best book to date and that is saying something. Highly highly recommended * Liz Nugent, bestselling author of STRANGE SALLY DIAMOND *
