Mummy, she‘s gone…‘
Gemma Ballantine is getting ready for work one morning when her eldest child comes running down the stairs, saying the words every mother dreads.

Who-Dun-It?
Every family has this secrets, and every daughter has at one point in time felt like they couldn‘t talk to their parents. Gemma is a new graduate with a full life planned ahead of her, but she is quickly thrown into turmoil.
Her parents come to her rescue, but at what price to them? Through life‘s ups and downs- will they survive all the lies in the past?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yet again Shalini Boland has written another psychological thriller that will stay with me. A helpful live in nanny the family are blessed to have found...or is she?? Shalini's writing style keeps the suspense level increasing throughout this hard to put down book. Just when you think you have it all worked out she throws in a plot twist I didn't see coming. Thanks to #netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. #tea_sipping_bookworm
