Perfect Nurse - Paperback

by Ion Esimai (Author)

The video looks real.

Cora Franklin knows it isn't.

But knowing the truth doesn't save her nursing career, her reputation, or the apartment she can no longer afford. By the time a wealthy stranger offers her a live-in position caring for his wife, Cora is desperate enough to ignore how little she knows about him.

The estate is beautiful. The pay could rebuild her life. And for the first time since the video appeared, someone looks Cora in the eye and believes her.

His wife does not want her there.

Some days, she is cruel. Other days, she seems to be trying to tell Cora something. The housekeeper hears everything and explains nothing. At night, Cora lies awake wondering whether the unease she feels is a warning-or the damage left behind by losing everything.

Then she begins wanting something she has no right to want.

And the closer she gets to it, the less certain she becomes about anyone in the house-including herself.
