Thank you to Netgalley, the publishing house and the author for the opportunity to read a complimentary copy of this book in return for a review based upon my honest opinion.

This was an exciting read, while it didn't necessarily keep me on the edge of my seat, it definitely kept me guessing. Great storyline and interesting plot; it was a quick read as I had to get to the ending to find out what had happened. This story is told in two viewpoints, Millie and Nina.

Millie is fresh out of prison and currently living in her car while she tries to find a new job. A live-in maid position would be perfect for her and solves all of her problems, but she doesn't think she has a chance; she is so surprised when the lady of the house, Nina Winchester hires her. As she is moving in, the italian gardener, who appears to speak very little english, tries to warn her she is in danger. so many little warning bells are going off in her head, but she is desperate and needs this job, so she ignores them. When Millie sees that her attic room only locks from the outiside, she gets a creepy sensation, but again, ignores it. Nina Winchester seems to be a little unhinged, she is either treating Millie like family or yelling and threatening her; but Millie holds on because she needs the job and she is starting to fall for Nina's husband the handsome and enigmatic Andrew and it seems like he may be interested in her as well. But, maybe Millie should have run when she had the chance.
