The Perfect Couple

**From the bestselling author of *The Party* and *Have You Seen Her* , comes a gripping read about a perfect match, but… Is it a match made in HEAVEN or HELL?**

**‘Chillingly believable and utterly compelling with thrills aplenty — I loved this book’ Lucy Foley, No.1 bestselling author of *The Hunting Party** *

When Emily applies for a job as a housekeeper for widower Rupert, it’s a chance to start over – a steady job and regular money means she can work towards her own place, not sharing a grimy flat with old mate, Mags.

As Emily gets to know more about Rupert’s world – how he likes his supper when he comes in from work, who his friends are – she can make sure everything runs like clockwork for him.

Soon there’s a spark between them; Rupert likes Emily and invites her to stay. For good.

To the outside world, they really seem to be a perfect match. There’s just the small issue of what really happened to Rupert’s first wife…

A gripping, razor-sharp game of cat and mouse, from the bestselling author, Lisa Hall.

**Praise for *The Perfect Couple* :**

‘Chillingly believable and utterly compelling with thrills aplenty — I loved this book’ Lucy Foley, No.1 bestselling author of *The Hunting Party*

‘ *The Perfect Couple* is the perfect summer read.  A classy thriller that’s stylish, twisty and full of suspense, Hall’s novel is garnished with echoes of the classics such as *Rebecca* and *Gaslight* , but is very much a delicious cocktail all of its own’ Sarah Pinborough, No.1 bestselling author of *Behind Her Eyes*

‘I raced through *The Perfect Couple*. It’s the perfect one-sitting read. Chock-full of menace, red herrings, and well-drawn characters who pull you one way, then hurl you in the opposite direction. I had my theories – they were all wrong! Highly recommended’ Caz Frear, No.1 bestselling author of *Sweet Little Lies*

‘Think *Rebecca* , *Body Heat* , and *Gaslight*. Lisa Hall’s dark thriller plays on three classic tropes and does the seemingly unimaginable: it improves on them. You’re going to devour this one’ Christina Dalcher, bestselling author of *Vox* and *Q*

‘Darkly addictive and impossible to predict, this is Lisa Hall at her absolute best’ CWA Dagger-winning author Chris Whitaker
