A review by bethanyhart93
The Housemaid by Freida McFadden

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

The ending left me with a lot of questions - how will she continue to free women of their abusive husbands and still evade the law?! Surely that detective who helped Nina out the first time is not going to just be able to indefinitely save her from the clutches of justice?!
