Atmospheric and twisty. If you are a fan of Robin Harding's THE SWAP, BIG LITTLE LIES, and the TV series, THE AFFAIR, (one of my favorites), would never miss an episode— you will find a lot to like here. 🎬 There's a minor "whodunnit" element to this book, and there are a few big and small reveals throughout. Some of the reveals were predictable, as the reader was basically spoonfed the information throughout the book, and some of the reveals were not surprises. Yes.” The interviewer spoke softly. “So then how do you control the monster inside of you, Mr. Grace?” I don’t want to spill much about the secrets, that is the best part of reading this book! I will say this—I definitely wouldn’t want to live in this cul-de-sac. These people have a lot of baggage and are a bit too involved with one another! But I certainly enjoyed grabbing my popcorn and learning all of the juicy, sordid details of this group who are quite frankly closer than neighbors should be!

A beautiful Grade II listed timbered building situated within the heart of Ludlow benefitting from a garage.It’s always been my dream to live in the perfect neighborhood. You know the one where all the neighbors are friends, have communal dinners, kids are all buddies. The kind of neighbors you can count on under any circumstances. Well, I had that dream until reading Raven Lane. Raven Lane is a highly desirable residential situation in the heart of historic Ludlow's centre. It is ideal for any buyer looking to be conveniently situated with easy access to all the facilities in the town. It is only a few yards away from the popular open air market and just around the corner is the castle and castle garden walks. Primarily told from Esme's third person perspective, the book focuses on Esme, a former actress, and her husband, Benedict, a former model. Esme has dark secrets that she's tried to ignore for 2 decades, and Benedict has darker tendencies, also ignored by Esme. Thrown into the mix are the residents of Raven Lane, a neighborhood known for preferring "artistic" (aka partying and young-acting) residents. Wild parties are a monthly occurrence on Raven Lane, parenthood and marital responsibilities be damned, and they only stoke the embers of the fire that will slowly build and incinerate everything Esme has sought to build. Because the "twist" which I assume this is supposed to be the twist? is that Benedict has been having his own affair, with Kitty's teenage daughter. YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. A TEENAGER. Now, Julia is the same age as Esme and Benedict's teenage daughter Zoe. Esme and Benedict Werner could live on any upscale cul-de-sac. Their neighbours, seemingly all with secrets of their own, could be my neighbours. Or yours. When what seems like an unfortunate accident kills one of them, slowly but menacingly, the layers of their respective onions, are peeled away.

This was a very interesting look at friends and how much we really know about them and what we keep hidden from other people. My biggest disappointment in this book is that I didn't like any of the characters. I liked Esme and Benedict at first but the more I learned about them, the less I liked them. I know if I lived on Raven Lane, I would sell my house immediately.

The purpose of referencing the hit TV series in comparison to Raven Lane—I think there are some parallels and especially if you are a fan of the show, this current Season 5, which is moody, dangerous, sexier, and edgier than previous seasons. In the aftermath of horrific events, characters try to come to terms with the consequences of their choices, similar to the characters in RAVEN LANE.An ideal choice for book clubs and future discussions. 📚 An excellent Reader Group Guide is included. The census collection is designed so that each group of postcodes should contain at least 100 people (50 in Scotland). I also loved that there was a book within a book! The neighbor that dies is an author and Cowie included paragraphs from his book into Raven Lane. I always enjoy when an author does that, and it gave this one a little something extra. The only thing I am a little confused by is the fact this is marketed as a mystery/thriller since I found it to be more of a drama, and there isn't really all that much mystery to it besides the secrets people are hiding.
