Summary

You trust her with your home, your husband, your baby… but she is about to destroy it all.

Sophy Pemberton is struggling to cope with the pressures of becoming a new mother. Her nine-month-old son never settles in her arms and the unrelenting tiredness from late night feeds is all consuming.

So, when Liv Granger from the mother and baby group offers her services as a nanny, Sophy is overcome with relief. Now she can finally get some sleep…She can stop failing at being a mother.

But Liv has a secret.

She didn’t become Sophy’s nanny by accident.

And Sophy has no idea who she has let into her home.

An utterly gripping and suspenseful novel that will have you turning the pages long into the night! Fans of The Mother-In-Law, Lies Lies Lies, and The Babysitter will love this heart-racing read.

I’m sorry to leave a negative review

I’ve got to chapter 11 of 41 and I just can’t go on the narration is not the best and has not endeared me to the story.
Having read the other reviews I was expecting an awesome listen. Sorry.
I don’t agree with refunds for part read stories however I’m sorely tempted this time. I won’t purely because it’s the wages of two
People and you wouldn’t go to smiths buy a book take it home read 11 chapters and take it back due to it being dull

SO worth the wait....

I added this book to my wishlist LONG before it became available in May 2021.
It was well worth waiting for and certainly didn't disappoint.
As the story unfolded and I got to work out which character was who, some I liked, some not so. Some I had empathy for, some I felt deserved their just desserts. I suspected each character in their turn, wondering what they were up to, what their end game might be, changing my opinion SO many times along the way.
A lot of stories of this genre start with great promise and then fall down towards the end and as a result, make me wonder WHY I bothered. This, however, was a thoroughly good listen.

Good

I did like the story, it was just the ending for me that let it down. All the build up which was exciting, just ended up being a bit of a let down. Don’t regret the purchase.

Narrator not suitable

Managed one chapter before conceding defeat!. The narrator had a rather high pitched voice which didn't work with so many different characters.

Excellent

From start to finish I enjoyed this, and I suspected nearly every character. Strong characters, great narration and good ending
