Publisher's summary

Everything I thought I knew about my life is a lie. My mother revealed a terrible, dangerous secret in her last letter to me. But with her death, any chance of knowing the truth has disappeared. I’ll have to do whatever it takes to find out for myself.

Going back to the house where I was born, I find a family living the life I’d always dreamed of. And when Cecelia, the mother, mistakes me for the new nanny, I seize the chance to move in. Maybe, being in the house every day and night, I will remember more, uncover more, about the secret that haunts me....

But this family is not the happy one it appears from the outside. Cecelia is angry, unpredictable, unstable. She is not the mother these children deserve. They are scared of her, and rightly so.

As my memories start to crystalize, I am ever more determined to shelter them from harm. Because history has a horrible way of repeating itself, and I’ll do everything I can to protect these children. But how long can I stay here, undetected, pretending to be someone I’m not? And if the children end up in danger, what will I have to do to save them?

With twists no listener will ever see coming, this incredibly gripping psychological thriller is perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Widow, and The Housewarming.

Extremely convoluted and confusing storyline

Unfortunately, I was taken in by the 5 star review.
I did not like anything about this book.
Very weak, nasty characters that I cared nothing about.
Two different storylines going on simultaneously that made very little sense.
The big “surprise” was no surprise at all and even then, I couldn’t have cared less about what happened to any of the characters.
I do not recommend wasting a credit on this
