The Girl Before is the perfect psychological thriller set in a world of incredible technological advances. This felt like an extended episode of Black Mirror.Emma and Jane both have just experienced traumatic things in their lives and so when the perfect house comes available, they jump at the opportunity to live within its safe boundaries.
Never mind the odd questionnaire that accompanies their applications asking them about their personal habits and what they would do in ethically challenging situations.
Never mind the long list of rules they must obey in order to live there.
Never mind that no one seems to live there for very long.
The book follows both Jane and Emma's experiences living in One Folgate Street...and what we learn about the house and its architect will shock and keep readers enthralled until the very end.
