Not a Good Enough Mother

Have you ever looked at those mothers who seem to be perfect – with sweet little children, a full-time job, a beautiful home – and thought: am I not good enough? But even the most perfect mothers can be hiding deadly secrets behind closed doors…

Ava Green has a successful job, two gorgeous children and a husband who makes other women blush. But now I’m working in her immaculate home, I know not everything is so perfect…

I hear the hissed arguments late at night. Finn takes phone calls at strange times – and when I talk to the children, it’s clear that their daddy is keeping secrets.

Now I know what’s hiding in this house, I’m just glad Ava didn’t check my references too carefully. Because Ava thinks she chose me. But I chose her. Even before she hired me, I made sure I knew about all the little secrets in this family.

And by the time they figure out why I’m really here, it will be far too late.

A completely addictive psychological thriller that will have you gasping at the final twist. Fans of Shari Lapena, Lisa Jewell and The Perfect Marriage will be reading late into the night.

This book was previously published as The Assistant.
