It's been fifteen years since Belinda was convicted of her husband's murder. Now that she’s free, she’s ready for a fresh start. So, when she gets a job at Sunnyside Home for the Young at Heart, she’s dead set on making sure no one learns about her awful past.
Mabel has spent her life at Sunnyside—first as an evacuee during the Blitz, and now as the home’s oldest resident. She’s held the secrets of this house for as long as she can remember. Secrets that, in the wrong hands, could kill.
But history won’t stay hidden forever, because someone is onto both Belinda and Mabel, watching and listening from Room Six.
And they’ll stop at nothing to find out the truth.
"A rich brew of dark secrets from the past, bubbling up in the present: haunting and compelling." —Nicci French
"A rollercoaster of a thriller with a compelling cast of characters. Jane Corry's novels are always so vividly written and skilfully plotted and this latest effort is no exception. Just brilliant." —B.P. Walter
"Another great read that pulls you in from the start. Gripping and clever." —Heidi Perks
"I'm a big fan of Jane Corry's brisk propulsive style and plot-juggling expertise. Ambitious, unguessable and always fascinating, The Stranger in Room Six is one of her best." —Louise Candlish
"I whizzed through it—such an engrossing page turner! I love the combination of kindness and menace that Jane brings to her thrillers, and Jane has such empathy for her characters. You really feel for them. A cracking story with a great title." —Emma Curtis
"I think this could be Jane's best yet; all the trademarks of a Jane Corry novel shone out: a well-drawn and relatable protagonist, complex plotting, darkness and tension." —Jane Shemilt
