“An immaculately constructed page-turner that is also, miraculously, a redemptive meditation on loneliness and community” (Carrie Snyder, author of Girl Runner). The inhabitants of Edgewood Drive in the small Canadian town of Parkville seem to live simple, peaceful lives, but as the children attend elementary school and the senior ladies play Leisure League hockey, secrets and hardships and menaces lurk not far from the surface. This suspenseful novel takes us into a community and reveals the life and happiness—as well as the fear and sorrow—of those who call it home. “Interference is a terrific page-turner, but it’s also a haunting, powerful look at the way families and friendships entangle us all. Berry is a sharp-eyed, engaging writer, and she deftly captures the terrors, ruptures and intimacies of one seemingly ordinary neighborhood, always finding a precarious beauty in her characters’ lives. This is a book that is terrifying, startling, and very hard to put down.” —Rebecca Godfrey, author of Under the Bridge “Interference is tightly plotted and neatly executed, very nearly perfectly paced, and satisfyingly complex—but it is also escapism in its purest form, and a sheer delight to read.” —The Winnipeg Review

Clement Montgomery has just been found dead in his Oakville, Ontario, apartment. Everything about his murder seems odd to Detective Jenna Lawson, from the genital mutilation inflicted on him to the fact that Golden Boy, one of the Thoroughbreds he trained, died at Woodbine Racetrack that same day. All evidence points to Clem’s wife Trish as the primary suspect, but this puts Detective Lawson in a difficult position: her new husband Larry Potter, the vet at Woodbine, is good friends with Trish Montgomery. As Lawson gathers evidence to put Trish behind bars, Potter vows to clear Trish’s name. Not wanting to interfere with a police investigation or jeopardize his wife’s career, Potter covertly looks into the murder on his own under the guise of investigating Golden Boy’s death. But as the couple work separately to find the truth, another man is murdered, and the crime scene is eerily similar to the one where Clement Montgomery was killed. Lawson and Potter race against the clock to find the killer before they strike again, but the couple may be too late. The killer has a lust for blood and is back on the hunt.
