About this listen

“Expect a few chills to run down your spine as you work your way through this sharp debut” (CrimeReads) about a young mother who can’t shake the feeling that her son’s imaginary friend is putting him in very real danger - perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Mary Kubica.

All children have imaginary friends, Georgina tells herself. It’s perfectly normal, and they all grow out of it in the end. But when her seven-year-old son, Cody, tells her about New Granny, the friend he’s met in the park, Georgina is instantly suspicious. Something - call it maternal instinct - tells her he isn’t making it up.

Still, maybe Georgina is losing her mind. It wouldn’t be the first time, after all. And with her own mother’s recent death leaving her feeling bereft and overwhelmed as a busy working mom, it’s no wonder she’s feeling paranoid that Cody has invented a “New Granny” to replace his beloved grandmother. Her husband assures Georgina that it’s just a game, the product of their son’s overactive imagination.

But what if Cody’s imaginary friend isn’t so imaginary after all?

“Packed with jaw-dropping moments, The Woman Outside My Door is a twisty thriller with hidden depths” (Robyn Harding, internationally best-selling author of The Party) that will keep you guessing until the shocking last minute.

Great story, kept Mr guessing!

I thought I had this story figured out by chapter 4, but I was WAY off!

Struggled to get through this!

Several of the charges were extended irritating and I didn't buy into the ending. A friend recommended this but I just don't get the appeal.

I don’t understand the reviews

Not a bad read/listen, but the rave reviews seem out of pocket. Would I buy it again? Ya probably, but It was very predictable.

IT REALLY PULLS YOU IN! DON'T MISS OUT!

Wow! I was expecting something much more sinister with some possible supernatural mixed in but there was nothing of the sort. It was still a great read and kept me wondering more times than not, who would do the things that were happening and why? The ending was so breathtaking. I didn't even realize I was holding my breath as I read and listened along but I found myself doing that a few times. It was that good!

worth the read

For a shorter book, some sections felt drawn out. Sort of like when students overly describe things to meet a word minimum in a paper assignment. Still, I give a solid 4 stars for good flow, description, plausible twists, and dialogue. The ending was unexpected but not hugely wowing.
This author has definite promise in this genre. Hopefully, the complexity of story building will improve with time.
As for narration, sigh, I give her a reluctant 4 stars for the believable variations on the characters. Perhaps I’m just not accustom to the Irish brogue, but this narrator did an annoying up and down thing at the end of each sentence that drove me nuts. I’m just glad it was a shorter read.

Great thrilling mystery..

Excellent story. Suspense builds and the mystery continues. Listening to this story, you will think you figured out what is happening.... BUT the ending is a shocking surprise.
Excellent narrator
Excellent author

Good, quick listen

The story was interesting and had enough twists to engage your mind without being ridiculous over the top. I thought I had figured it out a few times throughout but was constantly wrong. I love when I can't figure it out, and not just because there are 87 unnecessary story times thrown in you can't remember them all. Over all well done.

Holy cow!!

What a suspenseful ride! This was incredible. You won’t figure it out early and the ending will bring a rush of emotions. I will definitely check out more by Rachel Ryan.
