The New Neighbor

Playing catch up still. I am almost all unpacked - all that is left is my sewing room and quilting frame. I have some areas to reorganize, but that will come in time. This novel was already published - July 2022. If you like spy novels and thrillers, this would be a great one to add to your list!


*I received a free copy of this novel from NetGalley, Random House Publishing and Ballentine Books for my honest review.*


Beth is facing some big life changes - empty nester, dumped by husband, forced into a job change in the CIA. Turns out that she isn't adjusting well and is very suspicious of almost everyone in her life. Just because she's paranoid doesn't mean they aren't really out to get her.


I enjoyed the novel and the pacing of the story. Everyone is a suspect eventually and Beth will not rest until she identifies the subject. At times, I wondered if she was really on the right track. It was hard not to feel sorry for her, but there were some things that she brought onto herself with being sloppy in her pursuits. But man!! The payoff! And a good set up in case she wants to make it a series.


I believe this is my first novel buy Cleveland, but I am adding her to my list of must reads! 4 stars!
