Description

'Chilling, enchanting and thought-provoking' IAN RANKIN

'Moving and brilliant' DAILY MAIL

'Blazes with anger and sorrow' MARIAN KEYES

Have you ever felt invisible?

Bernie Moon has given her life to other people: her husband, her son, her friends (who are these days, mostly online). At nineteen she was full of dreams and ambitions; now almost fifty, and going through the menopause, she's fading, fast. Heartbroken and hormonal, she often feels like she's losing her mind.

But when a young woman is murdered in a local park, it sparks a series of childhood memories in Bernie and with them, a talent that has lain dormant most of her adult life.

She promised herself she'd never think of it again. When she was a teenager, it almost destroyed her. But now she's older, could it be the power she's been missing?

Could it be the chance to, finally, make them look?

Critic Reviews

Praise for A Narrow Door:

"Joanne Harris's novels set at the tweedy British boarding school St. Oswald's embodied the spirit of a fierce chess match. The icy rage and ruthless revenge is turned up even higher in A Narrow Door." --Sarah Weinman, New York Times Book Review


"A dark world of emotional complexity and betrayal, where twist follows twist and nothing is what it seems."--Alex Michaelides, bestselling author of The Silent Patient
"Exhilarating. Addictive. Fierce."--Bridget Collins, bestselling author of The Betrayals
"Harris keeps the suspense high all the way to the exhilarating ending. This spectacular feat of storytelling will seduce the reader from page one."
-- "Publishers Weekly (starred)"
"This incendiary, brilliantly plotted thriller from Harris centers on 48-year-old Bernie Ingram's midlife crisis. Vibrant voices will keep readers mesmerized right through to the glorious, explosive finale. This is a one-of-a-kind triumph."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Bold, brave, and timely." --Sarah Pinborough, New York Times bestselling author
"Chilling, enchanting, and thought-provoking." --Ian Rankin, author of the Inspector Rebus novels
