lazygal 's review for:

The Au Pair by Emma Rous
4.0

Anyone expecting something like The Nanny Diaries is going to be disappointed. Instead, this is a mystery of sorts: what exactly are the biological ties between Danny, Seraphine and Edwin? what happened to Edwin's twin? And why hasn't anyone heard from Edwin's beloved former au pair, who left suddenly the day Danny and Seraphine were born? There are whispers in the village, photographs that don't make sense and a house at stake. At times, the flashbacks drag but without them the modern day events won't quite make sense.
