Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"Debbie’s dark but consistent moral code makes her easy to root for...this darkly funny thriller will put a wicked smile on readers’ faces." — Publishers Weekly

"An exciting yarn...McFadden is an expert at keeping the pages turning and misdirecting her audience, ensuring several surprises. The same readers who fell in love with Millie from McFadden's most popular outing, The Housemaid (2022), and its sequels will also be rooting for Debbie." — Booklist, Starred Review
