Although Millie is an ex-con, she is also an advocate for women working towards a degree in social work. Because of her past, she supports herself by doing domestic work for wealthy clients who don't bother with a background check. Her new job cleaning and cooking for Douglas and Wendy Garrick proves that if something seems to good to be true it probably is.
I read The Housemaid immediately before reading The Housemaid's Secret. Initially I was disappointed as it seemed as though Secret was telling the same story with different characters. However, Freida McFadden can always be counted on for unexpected plot twists, and after the first one (yes, there are more!) the story really takes off.
Although it would be better to read The Housemaid first as there are some characters that appear in both books, enough background is given that The Housemaid's Secret could be read as a standalone. Just don't start reading at night if you have something important to do the next morning because Freida McFadden's books are always difficult to put down.
Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for an eGalley in exchange for an honest review.
