The Housemaid (The Housemaid, #1)

by Freida McFadden

I hold my breath as Evelyn and Robert Winchester enter the room.

Lisa Killeffer.

See you tonight after you get the job.

“Nina Winchester recommended you very highly.”

She smiles again, but there’s something off about her face. She tugs at the collar of her blouse again with her free hand, and as the material shifts, that’s when I see it. A dark purple bruise on her upper arm.

My heart pounds enough that I feel dizzy. And now I finally get it. I understand why Nina recommended me so highly to this woman. She knows me. Maybe even better than I know myself.
