What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Shocking.” –Kirkus Reviews

“In the armful of suburban domestic thrillers publishing this summer, this debut–with its wild, super-spin of a plot, in which everything is turned upside down–is one not to miss.”–Brian Kenney, First Clue

“An engrossing story brimming with realistic characters… [Adelman] is an author to watch.” –South Florida Sun-Sentinel

”[Adelman] steadily reveals disturbing details about her characters and she foreshadows–but never telegraphs–the shocking truths as she shines the sunlight of her talent on the shady folks of Shadow Road.” -The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star

“It ends with a killer twist that will surely get readers talking! This book will likely appeal to those who enjoy domestic suspense novels such as those by Megan Miranda, Chandler Baker, and Sally Hepworth.” –Booklist

“A fresh new voice!” Shari Lapena, bestselling author of The Couple Next Door

“Riveting debut… Adelman marries rich and layered characters with page-turning tension.” Mary Dixie Carter, bestselling author of The Photographer

“Remarkably suspenseful and nearly impossible not to read in one sitting, What the Neighbors Saw is a thrilling debut from an author I will be eagerly following.” Nora Murphy, author of The Favor
