A young woman takes a job as a nanny for an impossibly wealthy family, thinking she's found her entr e into a better life--only to discover instead she's walked into a world of deception and dark secrets. "Wild, unpredictable, and utterly absorbing, Nanny Needed is a gasp-out-loud thriller that will make your head spin."--Samantha M. Bailey, #1 bestselling author of Woman on the Edge Nanny needed. Discretion is of the utmost importance. Special conditions apply. When Sarah Larsen finds the notice, posted on creamy card stock in her building's lobby, one glance at the exclusive address tells her she's found her ticket out of a dead-end job--and life. At the interview, the job seems like a dream come true: a glamorous penthouse apartment on the Upper West Side of NYC; a salary that adds several zeroes to her current income; the beautiful, worldly mother of her charge, who feels more like a friend than a potential boss. She's overjoyed when she's offered the position and signs the NDA without a second thought. But in retrospect, the notice in her lobby was less an engraved invitation than a waving red flag. For there is something very strange about the Bird family. Why does the beautiful Mrs. Bird never leave the apartment alone? And what happened to the nanny before Sarah? It soon becomes clear that the Birds' odd behaviors are more than the eccentricities of the wealthy. But by then it's too late for Sarah to seek help. After all, discretion is of the utmost importance.

One night. That's all the time a family has to decide what to do with the man they believe murdered their daughter: Do they forgive him, or do they take justice into their own hands? The anonymous letters arrive in the mail, one by one: To find out what really happened to Meg, meet at this location. Don't tell anyone you're coming. In one night, you'll find out everything you need to know. Ten years after her murder, the letters tell Meghan's family exactly when and where to meet: a cliffside home on the Oregon coast. But on the night they're promised answers, the convicted killer--her high school boyfriend, Cal, who spent only ten years in prison for murder--is found unconscious in his car after it slammed into a tree near the house where the family is sitting and waiting. Is he really the one who invited them to gather? As a storm rampages along the Pacific Northwest, the power cuts off and leaves the family with no chance of returning to the main road and finding help. So they drag Cal back to the house for the remainder of the night. How easy it would be to let him die and claim it was an accident. Or do they help him instead? As the hours tick by, it becomes an excruciating choice. Half of the family wants to kill him. The other half wants him to regain consciousness so he can tell them what he knows. But if Cal wakes up, he might reveal that someone in the family knows more than they're letting on. And if that's the case, who is the real killer? And are they already in the house?

På få minutter forsvinder trettenårige Mia Tanner fra poolen i baghaven, og ingen aner, hvor hun er henne – eller hvad der er sket. “Det er en helt almindelig eftermiddag, da jeg går ud for at se til Mia, min trettenårige steddatter, der svømmer i baghaven. Men hun er væk. Jeg kan næsten ikke trække vejret, da jeg opdager, at baglågen er åben. Jeg var kun få meter væk. Hvorfor har jeg ikke hørt hende skrige eller set noget? Hvem har taget vores lille pige? Min mand kan ikke forstå, hvordan jeg har kunnet lade hans datter forsvinde. Og da politiet begynder at stille spørgsmål, kan jeg se, at de ikke tror på mig. Jeg har fået rollen som den onde stedmor. Hvis bare jeg kunne forstå de beskeder, som jeg har fundet fra min mand på Mias telefon: Jeg er så ked af det. Jeg elsker dig stadig. Og hvorfor finder vi hans vielsesring på bunden af poolen, hvorfra Mia forsvandt? Han har ikke nævnt, at den var blevet væk. Hvad skjuler han ellers? Der er sket noget frygteligt, jeg kan mærke det, og politiet bliver nødt til at finde Mia nu.”
