Mallory Quinn is a twenty-something recovering opioid addict from Philly who is hired to nanny for a well-to-do family’s young child in New Jersey. Shortly after Mallory moves to the property to see after the child, paranormal things begin to happen and Mallory feels like she is being watched. Over the course of the summer, she learns more about the property and the family she has agreed to work for. The family chalks up the weird things Mallory is experiencing to use relapse, but Mallory is clean and telling the truth, or so she thinks??

This was an entertaining, twisty story I was able to finish on audio within 48 hours. The narrator was great.

Even though I was entertained and invested in the outcome and I did not see the main twists coming, the story just felt very unrealistic to me and the ending, a little rushed and incomplete. I was left with so many questions. I kinda dig the creepy paranormal vibe theme, but it could have been executed better in my opinion.

Thank you to NetGalley, Macmillan Audio, and Jason Rekulak for an advance listener’s copy in exchange for an honest review. -@tirwinreads
