Nanny Wanted
(eAudiobook)
Description
Nanny Wanted is the perfect gothic suspense novel, with complex characters and a creeping sense of dread that will have you turning the pages long after you need to sleep. A masterful read-in-one-sitting thriller. Every bit as gripping as last year's Out of Her Depth (one of my favourite novels of 2022). A tense, slow-burn du Maurier style domestic noir. Loved it. A gorgeous setting that hides a multitude of dark secrets, I devoured this book in less than twenty-four hours. Charles and Laurie are so deeply flawed, it was a case of not being able to tear myself away as I watched their family implode following Lily's arrival. I absolutely raced through this. A tense, beautifully written and twisty read, full of atmosphere, that had me second-guessing every character. I loved it and can't wait to read Lizzy's next book. 'A dark Cornish gothic, with an unsettling feeling at its core that will keep you reading. Loved it.' - Laure Van Rensburg, author of Nobody But Us In Nanny Wanted, Lizzy Barber has written an Intricately layered and beautifully deceptive novel which holds its readers perfectly on the edge of suspense - what can you trust when the stories don't match up? 'A deliciously suspenseful and dark domestic noir that had me riveted from the first page' - Victoria Selman, Sunday Times Best Selling Author of Truly, Darkly, Deeply Exploring grief and guilt, this thriller is an easy page turner. Heartfelt but with a dark streak. This book is, quite simply, sublime Nanny Wanted is the new thriller from the Richard & Judy Book Club bestselling author of Out of Her Depth, Lizzy Barber. Nanny Wanted is a gripping thriller from the bestselling author of Out of Her Depth, Lizzy Barber. 'Nanny Wanted is the perfect gothic suspense novel, with complex characters and a creeping sense of dread that will have you turning the pages long after you need to sleep.' - Clare Mackintosh, author of The Last Party A remote Cornish mansion. The perfect couple. And the deadly secrets that bind them. When Lily finally leaves her toxic relationship, a job as a nanny at Kewney Manor seems like the perfect solution. There, she can cut herself off from her old life, and never have to see him again. The Rowes seem like a model family, and Lily falls instantly in love with her new home. But she can't help feeling that something isn't quite right. Why will nobody tell her about the nanny who came before her? Where does Laurie go at night? And what does Charles really want? As Lily becomes increasingly entangled in the Rowes's lives, she realizes that the perfect family may not be all that they seem. And as much as she fears the past she is running from, perhaps the present is where the real danger lies . . . Praise for Nanny Wanted: 'A masterful read-in-one-sitting thriller. Every bit as gripping as last year's Out of Her Depth (one of my favourite novels of 2022).' - B P Walter bestselling author of The Dinner Guest 'A tense, slow-burn du Maurier style domestic noir.
