The House Sitter

By: Ellery A. Kane

Narrated by: Kristin James

She’s in your home. But can you trust her?

Newly pregnant and down on her luck, Lydia thinks her fortunes have changed when a customer at the café where she works offers her a job and a room in her plush Pacific Heights home.

It’s been years since Iris’ husband, Dean, died in his sleep, and Lydia soon becomes the daughter Iris never had—making her cups of tea, helping her with the bills, and taking charge of Iris’ daily medications now that her memory has begun to fail.

Then one night, someone makes an emergency call from the telephone in the pristine kitchen. The police arrive to find the house has been turned upside down and no sign of Iris or Lydia. Dark and cold, this isn’t the welcoming family home it once was. And why has the telephone line been severed?

As the police unravel what happened that night, they discover a clue in Iris’ past that makes them question whether the two women met by chance after all. But who has everything to lose? And who is really in danger?

This heart-stopping psychological thriller is perfect for fans of Mark Edwards, Minka Kent, and Lucinda Berry. As soon as you start The House Sitter, you’ll be hooked!

Suspenseful!

Overall I would give 3.5 stars. The narrators voice for the elderly woman was annoying but the story was good! Easy listen.

BORING

The narrator is terrible. I felt like I was listening to Siri trying to be seductive. I couldn’t take any longer. Only made it to Chapter 9. Maybe I’ll try reading it instead of audio somewhere down the line.

No just no

Just don’t waste your time ! I only finished listening thinking it might get better but it didn’t!
