'Carer/companion wanted. Young female preferred. Competitive salary. Room and board included.'
Una Richardson is devastated after the death of her mother. Hoping for a fresh start, she responds to an advertisement and steps into the rich, comforting world of elderly Mrs Elspeth McKenzie.
But Elspeth's home is not as safe as it seems.
Kathryn, her cold and bitter daughter, resents Una's presence. More disturbing is the evidence suggesting two girls lived here before.
What happened to them?
Why will the McKenzies not talk about them?
As the walls close in around her, Una fears she'll end up just like the other girls...

Customer Reviews
Wrong pronunciation spoiling the experience
The mispronunciation of 2 characters name is a bit jarring and spoiling the listening experience. Una is the Anglicized spelling of the Irish name Oonagh, and pronounced Oona. Mathilde is a Danish name pronounced Mathildeh, very similar to the English Matilda. NOT You-na and Matild. Frustrating to the ear for an Irish person living in Denmark. A little research here would have helped.
