About this listen

“You must be our new neighbors!” Mrs. Lowell gushes and waves across the picket fence. I clutch my daughter’s hand and smile back, but the second Mrs. Lowell sees my husband a strange expression crosses her face. In that moment I make a promise. We finally have a family home. My past is far, far behind us. And I’ll do anything to keep it that way…

I used to clean other people’s houses—now, I can’t believe this home is actually mine. The charming kitchen, the quiet cul-de-sac, the huge yard where my kids can play. My husband and I saved for years to give our children the life they deserve.

Even though I’m wary of our new neighbor Mrs. Lowell, when she invites us over for dinner it’s our chance to make friends. Her maid opens the door wearing a white apron, her hair in a tight bun. I know exactly what it’s like to be in her shoes. But her cold stare gives me chills…

The Lowells’ maid isn’t the only strange thing on our street. I’m sure I see a shadowy figure watching us. My husband leaves the house late at night. And when I meet a woman who lives across the way, her words chill me to the bone: Be careful of your neighbors.

Did I make a terrible mistake moving my family here?

I thought I’d left my darkest secrets behind. But could this quiet suburban street be the most dangerous place of all?

From New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Freida McFadden comes the next installment of the unbelievably twisty, tension-packed and globally bestselling Housemaid series. This book can be enjoyed as a standalone listen: and once you start, it will have you up all night until the final explosive twist.

It was well read but unfortunately just wasn't as good as the first two

I liked the first two books much better. I finished it this time but it really was underwhelming for me personally

Great mystery and narration!

Suspense was excellent throughout the entire book. Lauryn Allman is a five star narrator. Good variety of twists and characters.

Wow the best one of the serie yet

We often say that the third of of serie is always the worst… but in this case it’s all the contrary. It’s my favorite one of the three books. Narration is exceptional as usual and the twists and turns are awesome. Already look forward to read the next one

It was good but the first 2 books were better.

It was a bit slow, but the twists were good. I enjoyed it especially by the end. But not as much as the first 2 books. Still worth the listen. The narration was great!

Not as good as the first two

It took until Chaper 42 for something to happen in this book. I liked it but not as good as the first two.

Not as good as the first 2

I'm not done yet, and because I enjoyed the first 2 I'm not giving up but I am finding it hard to understand what the point is. It's just family dynamics and nothing more.
