À propos de cet audio
If V. C. Andrews and Kate Morton had a literary love child, Emma Rous' USA Today bestseller The Au Pair would be it.
One of the most anticipated books of 2019 from Pop Sugar, Bustle, Cosmo, Parade, and Goodreads!
Seraphine Mayes and her twin brother, Danny, were born in the middle of summer at their family's estate on the Norfolk coast. Within hours of their birth, their mother threw herself from the cliffs, the au pair fled, and the village thrilled with whispers of dark cloaks, changelings, and the aloof couple who drew a young nanny into their inner circle.
Now an adult, Seraphine mourns the recent death of her father. While going through his belongings, she uncovers a family photograph that raises dangerous questions. It was taken on the day the twins were born, and in the photo, their mother, surrounded by her husband and her young son, is smiling serenely and holding just one baby.
Who is the child, and what really happened that day?

I actually bought the paperback so I can read this in a year on my own, I enjoyed this so much. I really loved the concept of this. Seraphine was a bit of an annoying character but just push through, it gets so good! I kind of had an idea of how this would end but there is a twist! Emma Rous, please write more!!
Narration: At first I wondered why they picked the narrator for the Seraphine character (I was not impressed). After about three chapters however, I was h-o-o-k-e-d. Both ladies did an amazing job.
RE-READ WORTHY!
