Mallory Quinn is a recovering addict, and her sponsor got her a job for the summer to a wealthy family, Ted and Caroline Maxwell, as a nanny to their five-year-old son Teddy until he begins kindergarten in the fall. Teddy is “gifted” (according to Caroline) and enjoys drawing. Mallory and Teddy bond well, she has her own cottage at the edge of the property that overlooks a large, forest-like park, her nanny duties end right before supper, and at the end of the day Teddy gifts her with one of his drawings.
Everything is fine, until Teddy’s
latest drawing is of a man dragging a dead woman across the yard.
Then Mallory learns her cottage
used to be the painting studio of a woman artist who went missing.
And now Teddy has an invisible
friend.
A well-crafted horror, paranormal
mystery with an ending I didn’t anticipate. Teddy’s drawings are included
throughout the book which adds to the suspense. Highly recommend.
