From the author of Tell Me You Trust Me comes a claustrophobic thriller about a grieving widow trapped in a mansion full of secrets--and the children she'll risk everything to save.
The nanny job sounds too good to be true, but I'm out of options. So, saddled with my late husband's debts, I say yes to the wealthy stranger he trusted--and enter a whole new world.
The gated Heights neighborhood is picture perfect, and JJ Whitmore's mansion is beyond pristine. Every room feels staged, observed. As if the mirrors have eyes. But there are too many doors...and too many locks.
The children are sweet, but something's off. Twelve-year-old Alex, eight-year-old Violet, and five-year-old Finn whisper constantly, cry every night, and leave strange drawings lying around. I think they're trying to warn me. But about what?
Their father charms, their grandmother rules, and their mother looks at me like I'm already gone. I don't know who to trust or what happened to my predecessor. But I do know this: Whatever sick game I've been pulled into, I've got to get out.
And I'm not leaving without those kids.
