Oh nooo, the daughter was actually the culprit the whole time. I guess that means that the rude, gaslighting, manipulative, jealous, possessive, condescending husband who wouldn’t listen to reason and used his wife’s family trauma against her when he was mad didn’t have to die :/
What a real shame. Fuck off with this whole book honestly. It felt like pulling teeth to make myself finish this.

WHY DID HE INSIST ON HER BEING THE NANNY IF HE KNEW SHE WAS CRAZY?? Denial or not, why risk putting your family in danger?? That was what frustrated me the most, beyond all the things you described 😂
I found the book quite disappointing and too many plot holes. Richard’s behaviour makes no sense it he knew his daughter was dangerous. I may read a fair few psychological thrillers but I saw the ending coming a mile away
Yes. I agree. I feel like he deserved what he got but the whole time I struggled to finish this. All the characters drove me nuts…
It’s interesting to see why you disliked it and yes the husband was indeed annoying that’s true but I still enjoyed other aspects of the book 🤷♀️
Exactly how I feel! This is the second book I’ve read like this and it pisses me off. The men are actually horrible but since there’s someone who’s worse in the book the author expects us to forgive them. When he called her a slut at the beginning of the book and she said he punched his hand through a WINDOW I was like, ma’am, those are fire engine red flags.
I agree! It was frustrating. The father held just as much guilt and the daughter but it’s definitely too bad he had to die. Getting through this book was so stressful!
I won't say I hate this book, but I will say your review summarizes my thoughts to the letter! Hmm, maybe I do hate the book...
This book I abandoned. The main character was weak and dishonest. It was obvious who the villain was even from the blurb, and weak dumb dialogue.
Does anyone else suspect the husband WAS the real culprit? 🤔 That's how I felt after reading it. Why would he insist Chloe babysit Evie? Why would he defend Chloe so much? I feel like he manipulated the grandma too.... Just my tjought and wondering if anyone else felt the same?
My best friend made me listen to this book as she needed someone to discuss it with. I HATED IT!! I had whiplash after reading it!

I knew it. It was predictable and the only reason I finished it was to mark off a goal for my books read this year and it didn’t take me long to complete.
Richard was the worst. Completely agree, didn’t feel bad for him. How on earth could he insist Chloe watch the baby…awful husband.
I enjoyed this book until the end. When Joanne, baby.,and Nana are looking at photos while Chloe is conveniently sent for strawberry jam. Nana turns everything on it's head, making Chloe the psycho. Why was the Father, Richard so abusive with his bad language, gun, axe. I am still confused as to who is actually the psycho. Up until this point I thoroughly enjoyed the whole book. Now I still have no idea who the real psycho is. Any ideas from any other readers please. I gave it 5 stars because the story kept me really interested.
After reading this I’m thinking the author left us hanging. What is Chloe going to do now that she has this new information from Nana?
