Fiction. Literature. Mystery. Thriller. HTML:

She's a liar. She's a stalker. She's in your house.

When Claire sees Hannah Wilson at an exclusive Manhattan hair salon, it's like a knife slicing through barely healed scars. It may have been ten years since Claire last saw Hannah, but she has thought of her every day, and not in a good way. So Claire does what anyone would do in her position??she stalks her.

Hannah is now Mrs. Carter, living the charmed life that should have been Claire's. It's the life Claire used to have, before Hannah came along and took it all away from her.

Back then, Claire was a happy teenager with porcelain skin and long, wavy blond hair. Now she's an overweight, lazy drunk with hair the color of compost and skin to match. Which is why when Hannah advertises for a housekeeper, Claire is confident she can apply and not be recognized. And since she has time on her hands, revenge on her mind, and a talent for acting...

Because what better way to seek retribution??and redress??than from within the beautiful Mrs. Hannah Carter's own home?

Except that it's not just Claire who has secrets. Everyone in that house seems to have something to hide.

And now, there's no way… (mais)

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?
