Asså jävlar. De hände saker hela tiden och man ville alltid läsa mer och när man trodde man visste nått så visade det sig att man inte alls gjorde det. Först trodde man de va Nina som va ”den onda” men sen fick man ju reda på att det var Andrew hela tiden och Nina som blivit plågad och planerat att Millie skulle döda Andrew vilket hon ju gjorde. Millies backstory va ju bra och passande och värre än vad man trodde hahahah. Men i slutet blev de ju klart att Evelyn (hans mamma) va den som startade allt även om de inte är en ursäkt för vad Andrew gjorde mot både Nina och Millie.

Read in one day. Good premise and kept me interested. Was unsure about how the book was split up.

I haven’t read a book like this in a very long time - probably since the Girl on the Train?

An incredibly fast-paced crime/thriller novel about a woman on parole who is hired to be a live-in family maid. You can see twists and turns coming for the most part, but you don’t know the specifics and that’s what keeps you on your toes. 

The change of POV at a critical point in the story didn’t leave me wanting more, in fact it answered some questions but also gave me a thirst for more answers. 

The plot centring on the injustices of the prison system and how poorly women in abusive relationships are treated by law enforcement and the ‘establishment’ made it more impactful for me. 

Other than the police chief person’s daughter being Andy’s ex (cliche, lazy, forced…), the ending (last chapter with Andy’s mum at the funeral and the epilogue with Millie being interviewed at a new place) chefs kiss.

Definitely a page turner once you get into the story, even if some parts were kinda predictable
