“The Housemaid is Watching” by Frieda McFadden
Published by Poisoned Pen Press
I enjoyed this one but not as much as the first two in
the series. As Frieda herself wrote on
page 323 – “The third in a series usually isn’t that great”. It was your standard Frieda McFadden book
with her making the reader question everyone’s intentions, continually thinking
you know exactly what will happen (some you’ll be right about, others not so
much), and plenty of little twists.
Unfortunately, I thought the final twist in the epilogue was one twist
too many. There was also a section with
the daughter’s point of view that I wasn’t fond of. I liked that we had the point of view of one
of the kids but it just felt “off”.
Other than those 2 sections, I really enjoyed it.
Finished 12/4/24 – 3/5 stars
