WINNER OF THE GOODREADS AWARD FOR BEST CRIME AND THRILLER 2023

As Millie struggles to find a stable job due to her mysterious past, the opportunity to work for the affluent Garricks in their luxurious penthouse seems like a dream come true. Nestled high above the bustling city, the apartment boasts breathtaking views and a gleaming, state-of-the-art kitchen where Millie prepares exquisite meals. For someone eager to keep her history hidden, the job appears to be perfect.

However, there is a lingering unease. Despite her meticulous duties, Millie has yet to meet Mrs. Garrick and the door to the guest bedroom remains permanently closed. Disturbing signs begin to manifest: muffled cries from behind the door, and faint traces of blood on the collars of Mrs. Garrick's nightgowns. Curiosity and concern get the better of Millie, and one day, she decides to knock. The sight that greets her when the door swings open changes everything.

From that moment, Millie vows to protect Mrs. Garrick. She has encountered sinister situations before and knows how to navigate the perils. This time, her task is to ensure Mrs. Garrick's safety while safeguarding her own precarious secrets.

However, the question remains: How far will she go to expose Douglas Garrick's wrongdoing and what is she willing to risk in the name of justice?

The Housemaid's Secret is an enthralling, twisty read that will keep you engrossed until the final page. Fans of The Woman in the Window, The Wife Between Us, and The Girl on the Train will find themselves hooked by this suspense-filled narrative, packed with unexpected turns.
