Yorkshire, 1979

Maggie Thatcher is prime minister, drainpipe jeans are in, and Miv is convinced that her dad wants to move their family Down South.

Because of the murders.

Leaving Yorkshire and her best friend Sharon simply isn't an option, no matter the dangers lurking round their way; or the strangeness at home that started the day Miv's mum stopped talking.
Perhaps if she could solve the case of the disappearing women, they could stay after all?

So, Miv and Sharon decide to make a list: a list of all the suspicious people and things down their street. People they know. People they don't.

But their search for the truth reveals more secrets in their neighbourhood, within their families - and between each other - than they ever thought possible.

What if the real mystery Miv needs to solve is the one that lies much closer to home?

The List of Suspicious Things Bewertungen

A touching paean to lost innocence and the comfort of friendships, its dark undertow leavened by stout Yorkshire humour * The Times *
I absolutely adore it! -- Marian Keyes
Godfrey succeeds brilliantly in fitting a gripping and moving story in the interstices of a horrific episode in recent history, without ever trivialising, taking focus from, or minimising the lasting impact of the original crimes. * Guardian *
There's been buzz around this novel - for good reason. Endearing characters and nostalgic details make this a must-read * Good Housekeeping *
One of the buzziest debuts of 2024, and deservedly so.prepare to have all the feelings * Red *
