How far would you go to get the perfect home?
There was a time when Margo thought she knew. But that was before a soul-destroying eighteen months of house-hunting hell.
Now she’s not sure. Her life, her marriage, her family, her career are dangerously out of control and all she needs is a new home to get them all back on track.
So when the ideal house comes up, desperate measures are called for. A little online stalking. Some sneaky surveillance of the property in question. Befriending the owner. All reasonable enough, right?
But soon it’s clear that nothing is off limits, because when your best offer might not win, then you just need to do what it takes…

Praise for this book
"Best Offer Wins is a page-turning blend of cringey and compulsive that had my jaw dropping on nearly every other page. Kashino cloaks her examination of gender, class, and race expectations in a twisty domestic thriller that had me guessing until the final pages." - Lottie Hazell
"Not since Gone Girl have I been so gripped by a narrative voice. This is a tale of blackest comedy, spiralling obsession and ultimate horror. By turns laugh-out-loud funny and appalling, Marisa Kashino asks how far you would go to secure your dream house, then goes several steps further than you would ever dare. Compulsive and unputdownable. Highly recommended." - Alex Michaelides
"Irresistible, elegantly written, and timely as hell, Best Offer Wins puts a sinister spin on today's cutthroat real estate market. We may not want to root for Margo on her rage-fueled quest, full of dark twists, for her 'dream home,' but her voice is too alluring to refuse." - Laura Sims
"Darkly satirical and wildly entertaining, Best Offer Wins is a riveting thriller from the first page to the last. Who knew that buying a house could be so fun and twisted?" - Amy Tintera
