The Maid’s Dairy is included with Kindle Unlimited with Audible narration so I listened to it. It’s a twisty thriller about a made who was wronged by a new client in years past and decides to enact her revenge. The couple she’s targeting is an old Olympian skier and his pregnant wife. The maid keeps all her plans in a diary. The story alternates between view points and with the investigators looking into a murder. Kind of reminded me a of McFadden novel with all the twists at the end. A worthwhile listen!
