Books by Louise Doughty

A Bird in Winter
A woman on the run. One minute, she's in a meeting in her office in Birmingham - the next, she's walking out on her job, her home, her life. As she tries to work out who exactly is on her trail, she must also decide who - if anyone - she can trust. Feel like a nice twisty teaser? This might fit the bill.
(Jenny Baker - bwl 119 Winter 2025)

Apple Tree Yard
Yvonne, a scientist working in London, is a self-described ordinary woman, happily and comfortably married with two grown-up children. Little does she know, when one day she meets a stranger and starts a passionate affair, how her life will change forever. It is - as one critic said - totally addictive and I could hardly stop reading until the very end.
(Polly Sams Plant - bwl 76 Spring 2015)
