The Other Mothers

Summary

The author of the “twisty, fast-paced” (London Sunday Times) Greenwich Park returns with a deftly paced thriller about murder, class, and motherhood in one of London’s toniest communities.

When a young nanny dies under mysterious circumstances near new mom Tash’s home, she is certain that this could be the story to relaunch her journalism career.

Meanwhile, she also needs to find a local playgroup for her son. Nearby is the gorgeous neighborhood filled with wealthy and friendly families, stunning houses, and lavish playdates. But when another young woman is found dead, it’s clear that there is much more to the community than meets the eye. And the more Tash investigates, the more she’s led uncomfortably close to the mothers in her son’s playgroup.

Are these women really her friends? Or is there another, more dangerous reason why she has been accepted into their exclusive world? Who, exactly, is investigating whom?
