Synopsis

‘I was gripped immediately’ Katerina Diamond, bestseller How much do you know about the couple next door? When Emily and Ben move in next door to Dr Burman and his wife Alisha, they are keen to get to know their new neighbours. Outgoing and sociable, Emily tries to befriend the doctor’s wife, but Alisha is strangely subdued, barely leaving the house, and terrified of answering the phone. When Emily goes missing a few weeks later, Ben is plunged into a panic. His wife has left him a note, but can she really have abandoned him for another man? Or has Emily’s curiosity about the couple next door led her straight into danger? A gripping, sinister thriller with a twist you won’t see coming from the international bestseller Lisa Stone.

Their neighbours seem a little odd, Dr Birman looks after his sick wife Alisha who never leaves the house and at night he is always at the bottom of the gar......more

This is the type of story that even though you can guess where the plot is leading, it’s still a fun and compelling ride. Numerous time I was hoping for both Emily’s husband Ben and the police to be able to make the connection and try to discover the true nature of her disappearance. With Dr Burman pl......more

Goodreads review by Louise on June 23, 2019

This story is about a Doctor who works as an anaesthetist who's conducting his own experiments. Dr Burman looks after his sick wife, Alisha. It's quite clear that all is not as it seems in the Burman household. He is quite obsessed with his interest in cryogenic research, freezing humans until a cur......more

Goodreads review by Mandy on June 22, 2019

The Doctor by Lisa Stone is hard book for me to get my thoughts down on. I did not hate it nor did I love it. It is a strange book with a unique story. I struggled to connect with the characters, none of them had much going for them and the story was far fetched and hard to believe. Certain actions......more

Quotes

Praise for Lisa Stone ‘This is a cracking good read that had me hooked from the beginning until the end. Full of murders, spiritualistic intrigue and just a hint of romance. It is quick paced, extremely thought provoking and full of twists and turns. I didn't want to put this book down.’ Amazon reviewer ‘Fantastic book, couldn’t turn the pages quickly enough!’ Amazon reviewer ‘A well-written and extremely addictive novel that will stick in your head long after putting it down.’ Amazon reviewer ‘I flew through The Darkness Within; it maintained a dark and gritty atmosphere whilst covering some rather disturbing subject matters. But despite there being some very emotive and hard to read scenes described, I raced through the pages desperate to know how it would end and I certainly wasn’t disappointed.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘A unique plot and storyline – I enjoyed the book immensely. It really makes you think.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘What a powerful novel. I have read all of most of Cathy Glass’s books and here she is writing under a new name Lisa Stone. I love the fact she has branched into crime thriller and I think she has done it really well.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘I really enjoyed this. Interesting and captivating story line, great characters and easy to read – not the subject matter which is difficult, dark and pretty violent, but the style of writing. A gripping thriller.’ Goodreads reviewer ‘The Darkness Within is certainly a dark and gripping read and one that will win over new fans as well as old.’ Goodreads reviewer
