The Swimming Pool by Louise Candlish

The Swimming Pool is a gripping psychological drama by Louise Candlish about desire, deception, and the dark undercurrents beneath seemingly perfect suburban lives.

It's summer in the city, and the opening of a new lido brings excitement and glamour to a suburban community. Natalie Steele, a devoted wife and mother, is drawn into the orbit of the charismatic new friends she meets there. The shimmering pool becomes a place of escape, beauty, and possibility.

But as Natalie becomes entangled in their world, secrets begin to surface. The glamorous facade starts to crack, revealing betrayal, obsession, and danger lurking beneath the surface. What begins as an innocent summer escape becomes a web of temptation and lies that threatens to destroy everything Natalie holds dear.

Admired for its atmospheric suburban noir feel, glamorous yet sinister setting, and psychological suspense, this novel delivers sharp observations of suburban life and the tensions that simmer beneath polished exteriors. Perfect for fans of Our House or Those People by Louise Candlish, and domestic thrillers like The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena.
