Description

The New Mother is an addictive, bone-chilling twist on motherhood and murder in suburbia, from the bestselling author of The Favour. It's hard being a new mother. Sometimes it's murder . . . Natalie already loves her newborn son, Oliver, with everything she has.

From the moment he was born, she knew that she was meant to be his mother. But when Oliver refuses to sleep, and her husband Tyler returns to work, Nat is left alone in a new neighbourhood, the task of keeping her small son healthy and happy on her shoulders alone.

No one else can breastfeed Oliver; no one else will protect him like she can; no one can help her. No one, that is, except her neighbour Paul. He is everything Tyler isn’t, and provides the lifeline she needs in what feels like the most desperate of times.

When Paul is helping with Oliver, calmed by his reassuring, steady presence, Nat feels like she can finally rest. But Paul wants something in return. He has a plan of his own, and it's no coincidence that he's befriended Nat . . . * * *Praise for Nora Murphy:'I couldn't put it down' – Shari Lapena'Taut, compelling and deliciously dark' – B.
