About this audiobook

A cunning, twisty, and unsettling novel of psychological suspense with a startling conclusion by Loreth Anne White, the Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestselling author of The Patient’s Secret.

Kit Darling is a maid with a snooping problem. She’s the “invisible girl,” compelled to poke into her wealthy clients’ closely guarded lives. It’s a harmless hobby until Kit sees something she can’t unsee in the home of her brand-new clients: a secret so dark it could destroy the privileged couple expecting their first child. This makes Kit dangerous to the couple. In turn, it makes the couple—who might kill to keep their secret—dangerous to Kit.

When homicide cop Mallory Van Alst is called to a scene at a luxury waterfront home known as the Glass House, she’s confronted with evidence of a violent attack so bloody it’s improbable the victim is alive. But there’s no body. The homeowners are gone. And their maid is missing. The only witness is the elderly woman next door, who woke to screams in the night. The neighbor was also the last person to see Kit Darling alive.

As Mal begins to uncover the secret that has sent the lives of everyone involved on a devious and inescapable collision course, she realizes that nothing is quite as it seems. And no one escapes their past.

    The ending was kind of predictable but there are other twists and turns to get you hooked. The accents were really bad and made me want to skip forward. Overall decent book but didn’t feel close to any of the characters.

    Great piece of theatre
    It builds up with twists and turns at each stage.
    A woman scorned and looking for revenge - which in this case is served extremely cold.
    Found the narrative style, changing from character difficult at first but works extremely well albeit I found I had no empathy for any of the characters except the senior police officer.
    Definitely worth a read or listen

    It was really well written the ending was not expected. The story is about a maid that searched for answers, looked through drawers of the owner of the house she cleaned for. The habit of looking through people’s belongings became an addiction. She started going to counseling and then her life begins to unravel!

    Lots of satisfying scenes of comeuppance but also lots of redundancy and unnatural exposition in dialogue which kinda ruins the authenticity of the characters and their relationships.

    ?? ?? ?? I have never given 5 ? This an amazing and wild ride of a story. It's giving me Freida McFadden with it's twists, but it's so much better. There is murder, deception, and excellent storytelling by the author AND the audio person! I can see this being turned into a movie or a netflix series.
