Description:

A collection of ingenious suspense stories from one of today's most acclaimed novelists in the genre. Everybody has their secrets, and in Sophie Hannah's fantastic stories the curtains positively twitch with them. Who, for instance, is the hooded figure hiding in the bushes outside a young man's house? Why does the same stranger keep appearing in the background of a family's holiday photographs? What makes a woman stand mesmerised by two children in a school playground, children she's never met but whose names she knows well? And which secret results in a former literary festival director sorting soiled laundry in a shabby hotel? All will be revealed…but at a cost. As Sophie Hannah uncovers the dark obsessions and strange longings behind the most ordinary relationships, life will never seem quite the same again.

The Fantastic Book of Everybody's Secrets is a thrilling collection of short stories that will leave readers wanting more. I normally don't read short stories because it never feels like enough time to really develop deep characters or intricate plot lines - especially since some of my favorite genres are thrillers and mysteries. I recently read and reviewed another collection of short stories by this author, and I enjoyed them enough that I decided to give this collection a try. I'm so glad that I did - they were definitely worth it! 

Each one had great main and secondary characters and suspenseful plots that had me engaged right from the beginning. Once again, I loved that I could read one story at a time, in between my hectic schedule, and not be worried about forgetting where I was at or what was happening in the story wherever I happened to leave off. The author has a fantastic amount of talent that is easily seen even in short stories. I definitely recommend this author and book for fans of the genre and for readers who enjoy suspense and mysteries!

Sophie Hannah is the New York Times-bestselling author of numerous psychological thrillers, which have been published in 27 countries and adapted for television, as well as The Monogram Murders, the first Hercule Poirot novel authorized by the estate of Agatha Christie.
