The Homemaker

Description

Maria always wanted a family. Now she’s found one.

Imogen has never been so busy – she’s juggling two jobs, has a young family and now she’s pregnant again.

Enter Maria, the perfect housekeeper. Hard working and capable, she seems like the ideal solution to Imogen’s chaotic life. But Maria isn’t at all what she seems – she has a sinister agenda of her own.

Little by little, she installs herself at the heart of Imogen’s family – doing the school run, cooking meals, caring for Imogen’s little girl.

But once she has won the family’s trust, Maria starts to do some digging. And discovers that Imogen has been keeping a terrible secret, a secret which Maria threatens to reveal unless Imogen starts to run this home the way Maria sees fit.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, Imogen has no choice but to comply.

A terrible mistake. Because as the full scale of Maria’s horrifying plan becomes apparent, Imogen realises that everything she holds dear – her marriage, her family, her friends – all may fall victim to The Homemaker.

The Homemaker – the chilling psychological thriller from the best-selling author of The Visitors and What She Knew.

Absolutely chilling… Miranda Rijks is known for her twisted plots and terrifying characters, and this book is further proof of why. I was immediately sucked into this sinister world where everyone has a secret and you aren’t sure who is lying. A brilliant look into a dark, calculating, and completely unhinged mind, filled with uncertainty, terror, and absolutely unpredictable twists and turns. I haven’t stopped thinking about this book since I finished it. An absolute must-read if you love horrifying psychological thrillers, family drama, and twists you won’t see coming. Clear your schedule and prepare to devour this book in a day!

-Kiersten Modglin, bestselling author of The Family Secret
