This was a great psychological thriller by Samantha Hayes. She is a new author to me and I'm eager to read more of her books.

Claudia is 8 1/2 months pregnant. She's married to James, who is in the Navy and step-mom to James' twin 4-year-old sons. She is working as a social worker and as her husband will be on a submarine somewhere when she delivers, she is looking for a nanny to help out.

Lorraine is an officer of the law. Her newest case involves the murder of a pregnant woman and her baby. The woman was cut open, resembling a Cesarean Section. Having children of her own, and having problems with her husband, isn't helping with her efforts to concentrate on the case.

Zoe applies for the position of nanny. Zoe has secrets, one being that Zoe is not her real name. So who is she exactly? And what does she want?

The chapters alternate between the three woman. Sometimes its hard to tell who is speaking for a moment or two. Extremely well written. Lots of roller coaster twists and turns. The final twist is a real eye-opener. Will leave you flabbergasted.

Highly recommend this one to anyone who likes a psychological thrill and a humdinger of a mystery.
