"A well-written and cleverly imagined crime thriller with a knife-sharp edge." — Crime Review
When part-time teacher Ollie Clay panic-buys a rundown house in the outskirts of Leeds, he soon recognises his mistake. His new neighbor, Chas Walker, is an antisocial thug, and Ollie's suspicions raise links to a local hate group. With Ollie's life unravelling rapidly, he feels his choices dwindling: his situation is intolerable and only standing up to Chas can change it. But Ollie has his own history of violence, and increasingly, his own secrets to hide; and Chas may be more than the mindless yob he appears to be. As their conflict spills over into the wider world, Ollie will come to learn that there are worse problems in life than one bad neighbor.

"A perfect mix of domestic and international crimes set in a lovely locale. I recommend this book for the fans of Lee Child and Vince Flynn." -- Syllables of Swathi
“The Bad Neighbour is a deceptively written domestic thriller that captures the mood of modern British society” -- SFBook Reviews
“It really is a great read, I'd rate it very high as a real world gritty thriller. The kind of story that has me flying through the pages as my schedule will allow and thinking about the the story when I put it down.” -- SJBudd Blog
