The Nanny kept me in white-knuckled suspense until the very last page. Gilly Macmillan’s breakout thriller is a dark and twisted version of Downton Abbey gone very, very wrong.” — Tess Gerritsen,  New York Times bestselling author

The New York Times bestselling author of What She Knew conjures a dark and unpredictable tale of family secrets that explores the lengths people will go to hurt one another.

When her beloved nanny, Hannah, left without a trace in the summer of 1988, seven-year-old Jocelyn Holt was devastated. Haunted by the loss, Jo grew up bitter and distant, and eventually left her parents and Lake Hall, their faded aristocratic home, behind.

Thirty years later, Jo returns to the house and is forced to confront her troubled relationship with her mother. But when human remains are accidentally uncovered in a lake on the estate, Jo begins to question everything she thought she knew.

Then an unexpected visitor knocks on the door and Jo’s world is destroyed again. Desperate to piece together the gaping holes in her memory, Jo must uncover who her nanny really was, why she left, and if she can trust her own mother...

In this compulsively readable tale of secrets, lies, and deception, Gilly Macmillan explores the darkest impulses and desires of the human heart. Diabolically clever, The Nanny reminds us that sometimes the truth hurts so much you’d rather hear the lie.

Review:
“Gilly Macmillan is a master of creating tension so exquisitely unbearable I had to force myself not to skip ahead. Brilliant, gripping, and terrifying.” (Liv Constantine, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish)

The Nanny kept me in white-knuckled suspense until the very last page. Gilly Macmillan’s breakout thriller is a dark and twisted version of “Downton Abbey” gone very, very wrong.” (Tess Gerritsen,  New York Times bestselling author of The Shape of Night)

“With its buried secrets, shifting allegiances, and creeping sense of dread, The Nanny pulses with tension until its shocking conclusion. I absolutely loved it!” (Shari Lapena, New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door)

“Exploding with secrets, The Nanny by master storyteller Gilly Macmillan has everything you dream for in a thriller...You won’t be able to rest until the final, spine-tingling conclusion.” (Heather Gudenkauf, New York Times bestselling author of The Weight of Silence and Before She Was Found)

“Macmillan fills this story with unreliable characters and red herrings. There are also delicious British suspense tropes on display: rural resentment of the local rich people, closets full of skeletons, shady business dealings, false memories, fake identities. Who could ask for more?” (Booklist)

“[A] taut psychological thriller” (Birmingham magazine on The Perfect Girl)

“A clever, dark, compulsive read. . . .  If you liked All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda, you’ll also enjoy this one.” (Birmingham magazine on What She Knew)

“A wonderfully addictive book with virtuoso plotting and characters -- for anyone who loved Girl on the Train, it’s a must read.” (Rosamund Lupton on What She Knew)

[H]ard to put down the book... The storyline is intriguing, full of twists and turns, and readers will become fully invested in these characters, all of whom are interesting in their own right.” (Bookreporter.com on Odd Child Out)

“intricately worked out and impossible to put down” (Sullivan County Democrat on Odd Child Out)
