The Fake Mother - Paperback

by Jenna Kernan (Author)

Eliza has everything I've ever wanted. Three perfect children. A doting husband. A dream home. But I know a secret that could destroy it all...

When Eliza Watts hires me as her assistant, I can't believe my luck. I steady my nerves as she glances approvingly at my glittering CV. I need this job more than anything. But she must never know why.

It's funny she doesn't recognize me, because we've met before. And ever since we crossed paths, I've wanted nothing but to be close to her and her flawless family.

But the job comes with rules. I can only leave on weekends. I must be back by sunset. And I can't tell a soul about what I see in her home. Or else...

I accept instantly and she looks pleasantly surprised. It's clear others have turned this job down. But I'll do whatever it takes to get into her house.

Eliza shouldn't have been so quick to trust me. Now that I'm here, I see that her entire life is built on lies. And when I talk to her children, it's clear they're afraid of her.

I thought I knew Eliza's darkest secret long before I got here. But what she's really hiding in this house is so much worse. And if Eliza finds out who I really am, I know I will need to run for my life...

An utterly gripping psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the small hours, flipping the pages until you get to the next heart-stopping twist. Fans of Sue Watson, Freida McFadden and K.L. Slater will be gripped from start to finish!
