Voor ze fulltime ging schrijven, werkte ze als advocaat en als docent Engels — een achtergrond die doorklinkt in de juridisch-morele dilemma's en de precieze observatie van burgerlijk leven die haar boeken kenmerken. Ze schrijft psychologische thrillers waarin ogenschijnlijk gewone mensen — buren, echtparen, families — onder druk komen te staan en hun geheimen prijsgeven.\n\nLapena debuteerde in 2008 met Things Go Flying, een roman die werd geshortlist voor de Sunburst Award in 2009. Haar tweede boek, Happiness Economics, haalde de shortlist van de Stephen Leacock Award in 2012. Beide titels waren literair van toon en bleven in het Engelstalige circuit; pas met haar overstap naar de thriller, een paar jaar later, brak ze internationaal door.\n\nDie doorbraak kwam in 2016 met The Couple Next Door, in het Nederlands verschenen als Stel van hiernaast bij Prometheus. Het boek werd volgens Wikipedia een bestseller in Canada en internationaal, en zette de toon voor het werk dat volgde: een verdwijning of misdrijf in een herkenbare voorstedelijke setting, korte hoofdstukken, perspectiefwisselingen en een verteller die de lezer voortdurend op het verkeerde been zet. De rode draad in haar oeuvre is wantrouwen binnen de kleine kring — partners, ouders, buren — en de vraag wie er werkelijk liegt.\n\nNa Stel van hiernaast verscheen in 2017 Een vreemde in huis (A Stranger in the House), eveneens bij Prometheus. Daarna volgden in vrijwel jaarlijks tempo An Unwanted Guest (2018), Someone We Know (2019), The End of Her (2020), Not a Happy Family (2021), Everyone Here Is Lying (2023, in het Nederlands verschenen als Iedereen hier liegt bij Luitingh-Sijthoff in 2024), What Have You Done (2024) en She Didn't See It Coming (2025). Haar werk is in talloze talen vertaald.\n\nVoor Nederlandse lezers is Lapena inmiddels een vaste naam in het thrillerschap: haar vroege titels verschenen bij Prometheus, recenter werk komt uit bij Luitingh-Sijthoff. Wie haar nog niet kent, kan het beste beginnen bij Stel van hiernaast — het boek waarmee ze doorbrak en dat in compacte vorm laat zien wat haar thrillers doen: een gewone straat, een gewoon stel, en een nacht waarin alles kantelt.",{"title":27,"description":28,"h1":5,"primary_keyword":29,"secondary_keywords":30,"tagline":36},"Shari Lapena — meester van de buurtthriller | volgendboek.nl","Shari Lapena schrijft psychologische thrillers over buren, echtparen en families met geheimen.
