Freida McFadden's The Housemaid is a must-read for fans of psychological thrillers like those by Ruth Ware, Lisa Jewell, and Colleen Hoover's Verity.

Millie Calloway thinks she has found the perfect job. As a live-in housemaid for the affluent Winchesters, her work seems straightforward—cleaning the beautiful home, cooking delectable meals, and picking up their young daughter from school. But amongst the manicured gardens and pristine rooms lurk a multitude of secrets that begin to surface.

Though Mille is grateful for the opportunity, the household's veneer of perfection quickly starts to crack. Nina Winchester, the enigmatic and demanding matriarch, seems to invent chaos just to watch Millie restore order. As Nina's unsettling behaviour escalates, Millie finds herself caught in a tangled web of deceit and manipulation. Meanwhile, Andrew Winchester, with his gentle charm and hidden sorrow, becomes a tantalising puzzle that Millie is compelled to piece together.

It's a role that quickly becomes consuming, especially when Millie succumbs to the temptation of trying on one of Nina's immaculate white dresses, triggering a sequence of events that will leave readers breathless. With every passing day, it becomes increasingly clear that everything—and everyone—in the Winchester home is not as it appears.
