Someone is watching.

Someone she thought she could trust.

Someone determined to make her pay.

On the surface, Anna Witherall has the perfect life. Married to her university boyfriend David, she has an enviable job, beautiful home and gorgeous three-year-old twin daughters, Stella and Rose. Their competent and capable nanny, Maria, is practically part of the family.

But beneath the veneer of success and happiness, Anna is hiding a dark secret, one that threatens to unravel everything she has worked so hard to create. Only one thing is certain: to protect her children, she must betray them.

A good thriller!

Reviewed in Australia on 31 December 2020

Part of the Family started of a little slow for me and was initially a bit confusing as to what was going on. But once I figured it out, it was fast paced and unputdownable. A thriller with plenty of deceit and duplicity, this book wasn't at all what I expected, but in a good way. I was however, left nonplussed by the ending, but perhaps it needed to be that way.

Don't bother

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 October 2019

I am genuinely astonished at the glowing reviews this book has received. We read it as someone recommended it for our book club (without having read it first) and I was full of anticipation, given the author's family connections. However, the plot is wholly incredible, the writing sloppy, and the characters unbelievable - particularly the protagonist. I had no idea at the end why she did any of the things she did - and, frankly, I didn't care. Really, don't waste your time!

this was so overrated

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 July 2019

I was taken in by the hype I'm afraid and the Philby name. I read up to 15% of the kindle edition and could go no further.. it wasn't even a good Mills and Boon ( very lightweight romances) and So boring. I just couldn't go on reading further. Amazon has very kindly refunded me my money. The only time I have ever asked for a refund for a poorly written over hyped novel. I asked for a refund because I genuinely felt duped

A difficult read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 August 2019

Unfortunately I just couldn't get into this book, it was labouring and difficult to read. It flittered from present to past and left me cold and confused. The long drawn out sentences were boring and pretentious. It's a no from me.

The most brilliant read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 June 2019

Verified Purchase

Where to start. Possibly with the level of little details that I've never seen before in an author. The story is told entirely from the perspective of two women, both of which you can't entirely tell is on the side of good. In fact you never really know for most of the book as the story unfolds with little bits of detail that keep you guessing all the way through.

If you enjoyed Big Little Lies, or the Night Manager then you're going to love this as it takes the dark twisty story you'd seen in something like BLL and mixes it with the espionage of John Le Carré, in that respect, I'm going to say, the King is Dead, long live the Queen, as Philby is rightfully going to knock his crown off his head and take the mantel as Britain's best spy novelist.

Very poor

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 July 2019

Verified Purchase

Dreadful. Completely unbelievable and daft plot. Ghastly characters all lifted straight from central casting. Poorly written. A ludicrous book on every level.
