About the Book
She's watching you, but who's watching her?Lily Gullick lives with her husband, Aiden, in a brand-new apartment opposite a building that has been marked for demolition. A keen bird-watcher, she can't help spying on her neighbors.
Until one day Lily sees something suspicious through her binoculars, and soon her elderly neighbor Jean is found dead. Lily, intrigued by the social divide in her local area as it becomes increasingly gentrified, knows that she has to act. But her interference is not going unnoticed, and as she starts to get close to the truth, her own life comes under threat.
But can Lily really trust everything she sees?
Critical Praise
"Creepy, compelling and brilliant."
-Debbie Howells, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Bones of You
"Ross Armstrong will feed your appetite for suspense."
-Evening Standard
"A twisted homage to Hitchcock set in a recognizably post-Brexit broken Britain. Tense, fast-moving and with an increasingly unreliable narrator, The Watcher has all the hallmarks of a winner."
-Martyn Waites, author of The White Room
"Unreliable narrator + Rear Window–esque plot = sure-fire hit."
-The Sun
"Brilliantly written...this psychological thriller is definitely one that will keep you up to the early hours. Five Stars."
-Heat, Book of the Week
"A dark, unsettling page turner."
-Claire Douglas, author of Local Girl Missing
"The Watcher is an intense, unsettling read...one that had me
feeling like I needed to keep checking over my shoulder as I read."
-Lisa Hall, author of Between You and Me -
