<br/><br/> It's New Year's Eve and House Tricks estate agents are hosting an open viewing in an up-market apartment when an incompetent bank robber rushes in and politely takes everyone hostage.<br/><br/>For Anna-Lena and Roger, busy buying-up apartments to fill the hole in their marriage, it's something else to talk about.<br/><br/>For Julia and Ro, panicky parents-to-be, it's yet another worry.<br/><br/>Lonely bank manager Zara only came here for the view.<br/><br/>While 87-year-old grandmother Estelle seems rather pleased by the company . . .<br/><br/>As the police gather outside, the anxious strangers huddled within try to make the best of a very sticky situation - but could it be that they have a whole lot more in common than meets the eye?<br/><br/>(https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/304/304480/anxious-people/9781405930253.html)
