Someone You Trust by Rachel Ryan

The author of the “suspenseful, chilling, unsettling, and creepy” (Mystery & Suspense Magazine) The Woman Outside My Door returns with another spine-tingling domestic thriller about a nanny whose new job working for the perfect family is not everything it seems.

Amy jumps at the opportunity when she’s offered a nannying job in picturesque West Cork. The assignment is for the friendly and welcoming Carroll family, whose stunning house is situated on a stretch of remote and rugged coastline overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It’s the perfect chance for Amy to escape the suffocating city and the man who made her life hell.

With two adorable children to oversee, a pair of generous employers, and more freedom than she’s enjoyed in years, everything seems wonderful. So why can’t Amy shake a creeping sense of unease? Perhaps it’s the husband’s erratic behavior. Or the fact that she was never told about the reclusive teenage son whose bedroom is next to hers. Or maybe it’s the strange messages that somebody has been painting around the local village.

Quickly, it becomes clear that all is not well in the Carroll marriage, nor in their idyllic rural community. Whispered secrets and strange occurrences fill the breathtaking scenery with menace, and as the days pass, Amy learns that the refuge she has sought just might be the most dangerous place of all.

For fans of The Turn of the Key and The Safe Place, and from “a bright new voice in psychological thrillers” (Erin Kelly, USA TODAY bestselling author), this unpredictable page-turner will pull you in and won’t let go.
