About the Book:
The Housemaid is a psychological thriller geared to keep readers engaged until the very end. The story follows Millie Calloway as she reenters life fresh out of prison. Through seemingly perfect circumstances, Millie lands a housekeeping job with a wealthy woman and jealous housewife named Nina Wi******er. At first, Nina seems like any stereotypical, upper-class woman with a happy marriage, flawless closet, and a loving husband. She has everything that Millie could ever want: status, serenity, and stability. However, while dealing with the ghosts of her own past, Millie soon finds out that the Wi******ers aren’t the perfect couple she imagined them to be. Their life is full of hidden secrets, roiling imperfections, spilled blood, and doors that only lock from the outside. The ending of this book sends readers into an adrenaline-fueled spiral and serves as a perfect segue into the rest of the series.
