The Housekeeper's Quiet Room
An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller with a domestic twistBy Ffion Meredith
Length9h 7m
About this audiobook
The pay was too good. The room was too quiet. And the east wing was always locked.
Cerys Bowen has worked in other people's houses her whole life. Penrhyn House is the best job she has ever been offered: a grand Victorian home on the Welsh borders, a widowed doctor, two polite adult children, a room off the kitchen, and one rule.
Never go into the east wing after eight.
On her fourth night, Cerys goes in. What she finds is not a secret. It is her childhood — every chair, every tin, every photograph of a little girl who was taken into care at six and never came back.
An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller about the most patient kind of obsession, for readers who want their twist to arrive in a house they already know.
