ONLY A WALL SEPARATES THEM AND THE SECRETS THEY KEEP...
Verity Baxter has lived - quietly, carefully - in Trinity Fields all her life. Then Ailsa and Tom Tilson move in next door and everything changes. Can Verity trust what she hears through the walls?
And what about the Tilsons: should they pity their eccentric neighbour and her messy house? Or should they fear her?
Either way, like the ivy that creeps through their shared garden fence, their lives are entwined now. And the knots can only get tighter . . .

A masterfully-plotted page-turner * Erin Kelly *
Pitch-perfect. I absolutely loved it * Lucy Dawson *
Elegant and astute, Finders Keepers is truly gripping * Louise O'Neill *
Riveting from the first page to the last. No one creates characters like Sabine Durrant. I was completely enthralled * Clare Mackintosh *
An absolute belter. Utterly engrossing, astute, disturbing and so believable. Just fantastic * Sarah Hilary *

Totally immersive, brilliantly written and creepily plausible * Claire McGowan *
Extraordinary ... a beautifully written, gripping cross between Notes from a Scandal and Gone Girl, with a dash of Eleanor Oliphant. Ridiculously good * Mark Edwards *
Completely WONDERFUL, her best book yet. I utterly loved it and could not put it down. Sabine has such a gift for those exquisite, telling details * Marian Keyes *
Seriously superior psychological thriller...the language is honed as sharp as a stiletto. The murder mystery is teased out to the very last compelling page * The Sunday Times Crime Club *
We have Verity's own word for it! Terrific (adj): extremely good, wonderful * Saga *
A taut thriller with layer upon layer of suspense and twists right to the very last page * Red *

A delicious study in dark psychology, a narrator to keep you guessing and a real emotional punch * Best Magazine *
This summer's most anticipated thriller, Finders, Keepers is deliciously slow-burning and hard to put down. Fans of Durrant's previous novels will relish the smart twists and turns and will be left guessing until the very end * Evening Standard *
This well-paced, intelligent mystery benefits from finely-drawn characters and convincing psychological tension. Durrant explores the vicious extremes of female behaviour and asks us to take a peek at the raging traumas behind the calm masks of suburban respectability * Daily Mail *

Chilling * The Independent *

An intelligent, twisty psychological thriller * The Observer *
You think you know what's going on in this brilliant read, then you realise you so don't! * Fabulous *
Durrant gently reveals her delicate exploration of damaged relationships, fragile friendships, missed potential, and what happens when ambition governs the way you treat others (...) An absorbing, classy read to keep you guessing * Evening Standard *
A delicious study in dark psychology, this clever tale will keep you guessing * Real People *
Reminiscent of Virago Classics and Alan Bennett monologues, it's an accomplished and addictive addition to the great British
tradition of spinster fiction, and Verity - perceptive about many things, blind to others - could well turn out to be as rich a portrait as in any novel this year
This brilliantly plotted novel will keep you guessing until the very end * Independent *
I loved it! * Sarah Vaughan *

Creepily brilliant * Bella *
