Blurb:

For twelve-year-old Miv, the world has become a confusing place. Her mum has stopped talking, her dad wants to move the family away from Yorkshire, and the news is full of stories about missing women. Leaving her home and best friend Sharon isn’t something she can accept — not when danger seems to be so close.

Determined to uncover the truth and save her family from leaving, Miv convinces Sharon to help her investigate. Together, they create a list of everyone and everything suspicious in their street. Some names are familiar, others less so, but each clue brings them closer to secrets they never expected to find. What starts as a game becomes something far more serious as they discover hidden truths about their neighbours, their families, and even themselves.

Set against the backdrop of 1970s Yorkshire, The List of Suspicious Things is a heartfelt and haunting coming-of-age story about friendship, fear, and the power of hope. Through Miv’s eyes, we see a community full of whispers and worries — and a young girl trying to make sense of it all before her world changes forever.
