When I read the blurb I couldn't help thinking about Henry James' "The Turn of the Screw", a masterpiece I love, as it seemed to share some elements with that story (the nanny, the children, strange occurrences).
I was a bit skeptical but I was wrong because this is an excellent gothic novel that features some trope like "the haunted nanny" but the author was able to make them creepy and fascinating.
The plot is creepy, there's an eerie atmosphere, and the descriptions have a sort of dreamlike fascination.
Excellent storytelling and character development, a plot that kept me turning pages.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
