Nobody in Flat 4B

Thriller

Five Birmingham neighbours invent a tenant to claim an extra compensation payment. When a stranger moves into the empty flat using their invented name, he knows enough to make himself very difficult to evict.

They invented a neighbour. He brought his own key.

Nobody in Flat 4B

At Mallow Court, the roof leaks, the agent rarely answers and everybody has a better use for the compensation money. Claiming one extra share for the empty flat seems like a small enough wrong to divide between neighbours. Leon Vale is only a name on a form. Nobody expects him to ring the bell. He arrives carrying a kettle, a suitcase and a plant that has seen better days. He has a key to Flat 4B, a copy of their signatures and an uncomfortable interest in what each resident has been paid. Before long he is eating at their tables and putting a price on his silence. Laundrette worker Odessa Bell knows how to keep a difficult household moving. This time her jokes, tea and practical fixes cannot make the problem smaller. As the stranger turns their shared building against them, the neighbours must decide what they are willing to lose—and whether they can trust one another long enough to get out. A domestic thriller with dark, lived-in comedy, Nobody in Flat 4B follows people whose bad decision becomes an unwelcome presence in the place they call home.
