Psychological thrillers fans won't be disappointed." --<em>Publishers Weekly</em><br /><br />"Unsettling, compelling, elegantly paced . . . A slick, contemporary novel that explores the wispy, nagging memories of childhood." <strong>--Julia Heaberlin, bestselling author of </strong><em><strong>We Are All the Same in the Dark</strong></em><br /><br />In this compulsively readable novel of domestic suspense, a young woman takes comfort in reconnecting with her childhood nanny, until she starts to uncover secrets the nanny has been holding for twenty years.</strong><br /><br />Sue Keller is lost. When her father dies suddenly, she's orphaned in her mid-twenties, her mother already long gone. Then Sue meets Annie. It's been twenty years, but Annie could never forget that face. She was Sue's live-in nanny at their big house upstate, and she loved Sue like she was her own.<br /><br />Craving connection and mothering, Sue is only too eager to welcome Annie back into her life; but as they become inseparable once again, Sue starts to uncover the truth about Annie's unsettling time in the Keller house all those years ago, particularly the manner of her departure--or dismissal. At the same time, she begins to grow increasingly alarmed for the safety of the two new charges currently in Annie's care.<br /><br />Told in alternating points of views--Annie in the mid-'90s and Sue in the present day--this taut novel of suspense will keep readers turning the pages right up to the shocking end.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><strong>VOGUE, The Best Books to Read This Fall</strong> <p/><strong>Town&Country, THE 45 MUST-READ BOOKS OF FALL 2021</strong> <p/>"A domestic thriller in which the domestic elements are cannily veiled as the book unfolds, <em>Nanny Dearest</em> is an accomplished thriller debut." <strong>--<em>VOGUE </em></strong> <p/>"A slick thriller, <em>Nanny Dearest</em> shows the dark side of a family and the nanny who promised to care for everyone in the home."<strong> --<em>CrimeReads</em>,"Books Focused on Opulent Wealth, Family Secrets & Suspense"</strong> <p/>"A well-crafted debut . . . horrifying . . .
