Synopsis

A “tautly woven, chilling, and heartbreaking” (Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here) domestic thriller about a nanny whose new job working for the perfect family is not everything it seems.

Amy jumps at the opportunity when she’s offered a nannying job in picturesque West Cork for the friendly and welcoming Carroll family. It’s the perfect chance for Amy to escape the suffocating city and the man who made her life hell.

With two adorable children to oversee, a pair of generous employers, and more freedom than she’s enjoyed in years, everything seems wonderful. So why can’t Amy shake a creeping sense of unease? Perhaps it’s the husband’s erratic behavior. Or the fact that she was never told about the reclusive teenage son whose bedroom is next to hers. Or maybe it’s the strange messages that somebody has been painting around the local village.

Quickly, it becomes clear that all is not well in the Carroll marriage, nor in their idyllic community. Whispered secrets and strange occurrences fill the breathtaking scenery with menace and, as the days pass, Amy learns that the refuge she has sought just might be the most dangerous place of all “in this creepy, propulsive, atmospheric thriller” (Kieran Scott, author of Regrets Only).

I had an interesting reading experience with Someone You Trust. I settled in for a thriller and it did meet my expectations in that regard. What made the story somewhat unique though is the author incorporated a subject that I haven't come across very often in fiction. I'm walking a tightrope trying......more

Amy O’Neill had a plan. The plan was to move from Dublin to Sea View to get a fresh start. She already landed a job as a live-in housekeeper/nanny. It was an opportunity she could not pass up. Especially since her room was huge and came with an ensuite. And the pay was on par with what she was expec......more
