Lesley Kara is the Sunday Times Bestselling author of 'The Rumour'.  The Rumour was the highest selling crime fiction debut of 2019 and has been sold in 18 territories. Lesley has written four novels and her latest novel, The Apartment Upstairs, is out now.

The Apartment Upstairs
Scarlett's aunt lived - and was brutally murdered - in the apartment upstairs. But Scarlett is determined that life should return to some kind of normal, even if that means living with just a ceiling between her and the scene of such a devastating crime. After all, this is her home. She's safe here. Isn't she?

Dee is busy balancing her job as a funeral director with organizing an event to mark the disappearance of her best friend, ten years ago. So she's got enough on her plate without worrying about the threatening messages that are appearing on her company's Facebook page.

When Scarlett approaches Dee about planning her aunt's funeral, an unexpected link between them emerges. Together, the two women could uncover secrets that have long been buried. Even while someone wants to stop them digging . . .
