The setup is intriguing: a nanny telling her story through letters to her lawyer as she stands accused of murdering one of the children in her care. It was also promising to see technology play a modern part in this familiar tale. But, the intrigue wears off quickly and the reader is left with nothing but a few bumps in the night.
