About this deal

This is a cast of unique characters- an odd bunch of sorts. Since each chapter follows a different character, I did like how I got to know each one individually. However, there were times I felt like I was getting too much story which lead to complete boredom and skimming on to the next chapter. What really made this a top-notch read was the depth of characterisation by Tina Seskis. Though the cast were mostly unlikable, it made for an underlying sinister undertone and chilling atmosphere, present for the entirety of the plot. Nicole, the bored, lonely housewife whose children have all flown the nest and whose husband pays her little attention. Hope Close reads like a play. There is only one main location, Hope Close, with scenes set in each of the four houses. I think it would easily adapt to the stage and I would love to see that. Although the novel is deliberately slow paced, you will lose yourself in this perfectly described insular little world. I did. 5 stars. I would say if you like Liane Moriarty then this book is for you. A modern setting with a very mismatched bunch of characters. There was some funny moments in the book especially with what some of the characters did get up to. A good, ok

The authors way of drawing you to the story is the highlight of this book – Tina managed to make you think that you know exactly what is happening, that this book isn’t entertaining after all, but then with each next chapter you get hooked up and change your opinion and after reading half of the book you are not sure if you know who the evil characters are, or if they are all going to kill one another, or what their secrets are. Hope Close reads like a play. There is only one main location, Hope Close, with scenes set Listed here are the 10 closest GPs (General Practitioners) to Scott Hope Close, Macclesfield, SK11 8SJ.

Hope Close, so wonderfully described by the author is a well 2 do cul de sac in leafy Surrey, consisting of only 4 abodes yet rammed full of ‘perfect to read about’ characters I’ve read all of this author’s books and though I enjoyed this one it wasn’t as good as her others I felt.I was not aware of the storyline of this book before starting to read but was intrigued following reading one of Tina Seskis' other books, The Honeymoon and loving it. With chapters told from each of the characters point of view, the reader is immersed in Hope Close with its tension, antagonism, grievances, loneliness, unhappiness and secrecy. An uneasy dynamic to say the least. Overall, the UK considers itself to be healthy - 82% of residents rated their health as Very Good or Good.

Hope Close, set in the UK, follows a small cul-de-sac through a stressful few months as secrets, accusations, and tensions come to a head. Layla, Joan, Nicole, and their families, maintain an uneasy truce that seems to be shattered when a mysterious and seemingly unfriendly single man moves into the vacant house on their street. Another good domestic thriller out there, focusing specifically on who exactly you neighbours are! It gave me Desperate Housewives vibes, which for some may be a good comparison but for others not. Beautifully presented and spacious three/four bedroom family home situated on Wilson Square, Cleveleys. The property has been modernised throughout and is located in a popular residential ... All in all, this is quiet book which would benefit much from more courage and boldness in approach.Hope Close, Plymouth, PL2 2FL is within the Ham, Weston Mill & Pennycross policing neighbourhood, under the Devon & Cornwall Police force area. Hope Close in St. Helens is in the North West region of England. The postcode is within the St Helens Town Centre ward/electoral division, which is in the constituency of St Helens South and Whiston. I have read other books by this author and enjoyed so I was keen to read this. The story focuses on the residents of Hope Close and is told from the perspectives of 4 main characters, each with their own mini plot going on. Each character is different and has you guessing about how their part in the story will develop. The new resident Andy is the one which has you gripped the most , what did he do and how does he fit in to it all? Although I thoroughly enjoyed this I was expecting a bigger twist at the end, I'm not sure what but I just sort of felt a bit deflated by the end. After saying that , it is a good read though and I would recommend it to others who like this genre.
