In Safe Hands
You'd do everything for your dad. But she'll do anything.
The high life is over. Her business is bust.
Penniless, Genevieve Ho returns from Singapore to her wealthy but ailing elderly father in Fulham, London. She'll care for him and rebuild their fractured relationship. That was the plan—until she meets his new hostile caregiver.
Her dad is kept on a tight leash by his caregiver, who is perfect in his eyes. His confusion worsens. He treats her like family, and starts mistaking her for his own daughter. Genevieve fights to reclaim her place. Instead, she becomes the unwanted, freeloading intruder.
But when a Chinese man is brutally attacked in East London, Genevieve is not the only one with something to lose. Someone is watching the house. Someone who knows the victim—and the caregiver. As dark secrets and past betrayals catch up with her, the truth is about to erupt.
There is little time left.
Genevieve's dad is slipping away. Her family's safety is at risk. But how do you fight someone who's already won?
In Safe Hands by Ivy Ngeow exposes the fragility of family ties and trust as they are tested by deception and desperation.
