THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLING DEBUT PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER YOU CAN’T MISS!
The perfect marriage? Or the perfect lie?
“A hair-raising debut, both unsettling and addictive…A chilling thriller that will keep you reading long into the night.” —Mary Kubica, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Good Girl

“The sense of believably and terror that engulfs Behind Closed Doors doesn’t waver.” —The Associated Press, picked up by The Washington Post
Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth; she has charm and elegance. He’s a dedicated attorney who has never lost a case; she is a flawless homemaker, a masterful gardener and cook, and dotes on her disabled younger sister. Though they are still newlyweds, they seem to have it all. You might not want to like them, but you do. You’re hopelessly charmed by the ease and comfort of their home, by the graciousness of the dinner parties they throw. You’d like to get to know Grace better.
But it’s difficult, because you realize Jack and Grace are inseparable.
Some might call this true love. Others might wonder why Grace never answers the phone. Or why she can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn’t work. How she can cook such elaborate meals but remain so slim. Or why she never seems to take anything with her when she leaves the house, not even a pen. Or why there are such high-security metal shutters on all the downstairs windows.
Some might wonder what’s really going on once the dinner party is over, and the front door has closed.
From bestselling author B. A. Paris comes the gripping thriller and international phenomenon Behind Closed Doors.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
3/5 stars — “Just don’t”
This book makes you want to know what happens at the end… but the process is so painful and annoying. So you listen and you are frustrated and horrified but intrigued. The best thing to do now, is skip ahead to the last hour and find out what happens. And if you are a dog lover….— Janet, Audible listener
4/5 stars — “A BIT FAR FETCHED”
…but none the less entertaining. Narration was great. Initially I found the story quite engaging and suspenseful. After the first third of the book it began to be so far fetched I no longer felt the psychological suspense. But still found it not a total loss and hung in til the end— Patti L, Audible listener
3/5 stars — “A little far fetched”
First of all I almost couldn’t listen any longer after the incident with the dog. Second, I find this story very unbelievable. Most people probably wouldn’t behave like grace in that situation and I find it highly unlikely that a doctor and police officer would just dismiss her claims. Not a realistic story and kind of dragged on for way too long. The narrator was good though.— Jules Ann, Audible listener
