About this listen
“Welcome to the family,” Nina Winchester says as I shake her elegant, manicured hand. I smile politely, gazing around the marble hallway. Working here is my last chance to start fresh. I can pretend to be whoever I like. But I’ll soon learn that the Winchesters’ secrets are far more dangerous than my own....
Every day I clean the Winchesters’ beautiful house top to bottom. I collect their daughter from school. And I cook a delicious meal for the whole family before heading up to eat alone in my tiny room on the top floor.
I try to ignore how Nina makes a mess just to watch me clean it up. How she tells strange lies about her own daughter. And how her husband, Andrew, seems more broken every day. But as I look into Andrew’s handsome brown eyes, so full of pain, it’s hard not to imagine what it would be like to live Nina’s life. The walk-in closet, the fancy car, the perfect husband.
I only try on one of Nina’s pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it’s like. But she soon finds out...and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it’s far too late.
But I reassure myself: The Winchesters don’t know who I really am.
They don’t know what I’m capable of....

Good story, narration just okay
This story had a lot of unexpected twists and turns, which I enjoyed. However, the narration could have been better. Most characters sounded the same, and there were occasions where there was some accidental crossovers in voice (for example, a female's voice being accidentally spoken with the deeper tones of her husband), which made things a little confusing here and there. That said, I would still recommend this as a good, engaging listen.

I enjoyed this one. It was a good listen and went for long enough to let us get involved in everything.

Enjoyable thriller
Worth reading, but not up there with my ten favourite books of all time. Helped me to pass the time on a very long flight.

Easy Listening
I thoroughly enjoyed this book - I thought the narrator was fabulous and the story a good one. Simply written, but all I ask for is a book I want to listen to. This certainly delivered.

Easily An Instant Favourite!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book more than I have enjoyed a book in a long time, i was hooked and listened to it in one go!
The twists really got me, for once! I was NOT expecting that twist at all, and I always seem to predict twists.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is just getting back into reading and wants something addicting!
I also want to add a trigger warning for DV i think that is important, but the way this book explores it is definitely a different way than I've ever looked at the intricacies of such acts.

Suspenseful thriller
I loved this book. I veered off my favourite authors and took a chance on this book. Wasn't disappointed. Narration was terrific and very easy to listen to. Great story line. Highly recommend.
