From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of In a Dark, Dark Wood, The Woman in Cabin 10, The Lying Game, and The Death of Mrs. Westaway comes Ruth Ware’s highly anticipated fifth novel.When she stumbles across the ad, she’s looking for something else completely. But it seems like too good an opportunity to miss—a live-in nannying post, with a staggeringly generous salary. And when Rowan Caine arrives at Heatherbrae House, she is smitten—by the luxurious “smart” home fitted out with all modern conveniences, by the beautiful Scottish Highlands, and by this picture-perfect family. What she doesn’t know is that she’s stepping into a nightmare—one that will end with a child dead and herself in prison awaiting trial for murder. Writing to her lawyer from prison, she struggles to explain the unravelling events that led to her incarceration. It wasn’t just the constant surveillance from the cameras installed around the house, or the malfunctioning technology that woke the household with booming music, or turned the lights off at the worst possible time. It wasn’t just the girls, who turned out to be a far cry from the immaculately behaved model children she met at her interview. It wasn’t even the way she was left alone for weeks at a time, with no adults around apart from the enigmatic handyman, Jack Grant. It was everything. She knows she’s made mistakes. She admits that she lied to obtain the post, and that her behavior toward the children wasn’t always ideal. She’s not innocent, by any means. But, she maintains, she’s not guilty—at least not of murder. Which means someone else is. Full of spellbinding menace and told in Ruth Ware’s signature suspenseful style, The Turn of the Key is an unputdownable thriller from the Agatha Christie of our time.
Ruth Ware is an international number one bestseller. Her thrillers In a Dark, Dark Wood, The Woman in Cabin 10, The Lying Game and The Death of Mrs Westaway have appeared on bestseller lists around the world, including the Sunday Times and New York Times, and she is published in more than 40 languages. She lives on the south coast of England, with her family.
audiobook的narrator 超级夸张惊悚的独白,哈哈哈很好笑,也很代入感;猜了一圈,最后的结局有点对不起之前 的铺垫,都是家庭惊悚悬疑的老梗,作者讲故事的能力还是厉害的,这个智能豪宅的监控系统也是很可怕了, 女主人 暧昧男子 继父 各种怀疑对象,还有那个poison garden, 死去的小孩的灵魂,之前拥有这所大房子的租户博士一家子;拍成电影感觉会是不错的惊悚片 甚至带鬼的恐怖片 还不如blame the ghost 这样就成为haunting house了 ;看来欧美关于au pair 和 nanny之类题材还能再战500年 就看作者功力了
评分很爽的阅读体验了。读完让我想把家里的智能音箱什么的统统丢掉,作者的setting and tone太赞了。故事里的twist大概猜到了一些但是比较重要的都没有猜到。
评分智能房子里的伪灵异故事,全篇第一人称的书信叙述略冗长故弄玄虚,结局仓促设定普通不惊奇
评分3.5? 前期铺垫了那么多,悬疑+haunted house,非常有意思的元素加在一起,但是结局竟然如此“唯物主义”。meh
