I found this to be a well written thriller with good characterisation, lots of intrigue, and it kept enticing me back to find what was going to happen next. (

From the first page wishing to know if the things are as simple as they seem or if everyone is lying.

I didn’t imagine the end. A good twist to finish the book.

I have enjoyed it. (

Psychological thriller with a surprising twist at the end! This is the 2nd book I've read by this author and will continue to look for more. I listened to this on audio. 8 hours 10 minutes (

Good read. You think you’re going to be the one blackmailing - lying, setting traps for people but you’ve overlooked something and someone. Will it be their downfall or yours?

Well that was something. A thriller that flips, and flops, and flips again, and STILL doesn't end up where you expect. But a little too much on the flip-flopping surprises here.

I figured out one of the "surprises", though honestly maybe the reader is supposed to know that?

quick summary:
Claire has spent the last 10+ years of her life hating Hannah, her younger brother's former nanny, who worked for a week and then accused her father of sexual assault. Claire has spent her entire adult life thinking Hannah ruined her family's lives. Her father died during his trial, her mother not long after. She and her brother rarely talk. She has made nothing of herself and can barely keep a job, she is so consumed with anger. Then one day she sees Hannah on the streets of NY and follows her home. Claire is sneaky and clever and personable and finds Hannah has fired her housekeeper. So she decides to ruin Hannah's life just as Hannah ruined hers. She gets that housekeeping,nanny job. But nothing goes to plan. (
