Story
Kit Darling is a maid with a snooping problem. She’s the “invisible girl,” compelled to poke into her wealthy clients’ closely guarded lives. It’s a harmless hobby until Kit sees something she can’t unsee in the home of her brand-new clients: a secret so dark it could destroy the privileged couple expecting their first child. This makes Kit dangerous to the couple. In turn, it makes the couple—who might kill to keep their secret—dangerous to Kit.

When I started this book, I thought I can’t finish it. Again a rich family with their maid. But I noticed book got good reviews and I kept reading. Half way through I started liking the book. It was smart writing. I really like it because I could not question anything at the end. Well done !

I could not stand the story, I can’t believe I read it all but so much unnecessary details and reactions! Showing who is the boss! I really did not like it! Not strong story and not the best writing !

I think the story of women dying was kind of the same but I liked the twist. I liked touching the fact that when we use human mind for wrong plans, that will change a person. It was heavy and sad at the time. I like that even though I knew who is the killer, still was interested to know how their mind work. I love Joe personality! In real life, is there any man like him !

I really enjoyed reading this book. Sometimes it was hard to imagine distances as sometime it would take hours and sometimes less to get to the same destination. Made me feel kind of lost.
Overall enjoyed it !

It’s been a decade since Trumanell Branson disappeared, leaving only a bloody handprint behind. Her pretty face still hangs like a watchful queen on the posters on the walls of the town’s Baptist church, the police station, and in the high school. They all promise the same thing: We will find you. Meanwhile, Tru's brother, Wyatt, lives as a pariah in the desolation of the old family house, cleared of wrongdoing by the police but tried and sentenced in the court of public opinion and in a new documentary about the crime.

The first half of the book was boring and the fact of being obsessed about someone died many years ago. The second part was awesome!
Really loved it .
