About this listen

A family riddled with lies. A little girl who won't speak. What if keeping her safe means losing her forever?

Juliet only wanted to see her childhood home one more time–to look at it from the street. She never intended to meet the new owners, let alone talk her way into a position as their new live-in nanny. But it's too late now to tell the truth about who she really is.

Six-year-old Kitty has progressive mutism and cannot speak. Nobody knows why she keeps making silent phone calls to the police. Juliet makes it her mission to find out.

As Juliet settles into the house, nostalgia for her childhood gives way to uneasiness, as troubling memories surface. She begins to realise that her new employers have a connection to her own past, and family secrets she has tried hard to forget. And she is horrified to learn that they have a secret too–one that could blow their world apart.

Juliet faces an impossible choice. Keeping Kitty safe could cost her everything.

Escape into this stunning psychological thriller with unforgettable characters and an ending you won't see coming.

If you like a good mystery, this title is for you. The story had me guessing until the very end. The Narrator does an AMAZING job voicing all of the characters throughout the novel. I Every T is crossed--and, every I is dotted. I really didn't know how this was going to end. I'd love to see this made into a movie for Netflix. Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So good! Had me hooked the whole time

Wow, I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. These types of books aren’t really what I listen to but I gave it a try and I enjoyed. I never saw the twists coming.

Good story…

While the evil portrayed in this book may seem utterly fictional to many, as a survivor of narcissistic gaslighting and abuse… I can assure you that this level of sadistic cruelty is all too real. This story is a beautiful tale of triumph over evil and the performance is captivating.

Heartbreaking and heartwarming simultaneously.

I loved this so much. I love how Kitty just immediately trusted Juliette and was able to talk to save her. And I love how Kitty immediately trusted Cameron so much and asked the police to call his parents at the end. Just incrediblely emotional!!! I wish this could become a movie 🥺
