I am a genuine fan of McFadden! I like how she doesn’t rely on tons of sexual content or cursing or gruesome descriptions of things. There’s a little bit, but very  mild, especially in comparison to other thriller writers (looking at you, Ruth Ware and Lisa Jewell!)
I love the multiple POVs, and I feel like that’s where the story really turned a tide, when the view switched over to Nina. I was a bit bored with the “predictable” trope of

house maid cheats with the hot husband

.  
I saw this is a series and I’m looking forward to following Millie (if that’s how the series goes).
