New employer, old lies and a locked guest room

In The Housemaid's Secret, Freida McFadden brings Millie back for another fresh start that feels too good to be real. This time she is hired by Douglas Garrick, a wealthy businessman who lives in a gleaming penthouse high above the city. The rules are simple, and the pay is better than anything she has seen since leaving prison.

There is only one condition. Millie must never open the door to the guest bedroom where Douglas’s wife Wendy supposedly rests, too sick to see visitors. From the hallway Millie hears muffled sounds and catches glimpses that do not match the story she has been told. A smear of blood on a nightgown and a whispered plea for help make it harder and harder to ignore what might be happening behind that locked door.

As Millie tries to decide who is telling the truth, she balances the chance at a secure life against the risk of repeating old mistakes. The deeper she is drawn into the Garricks’ secrets, the more she realizes that walking away may already be impossible.
