About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
I know you don’t know me but you have to help me. I didn’t kill anyone.
When Rowan stumbles across the advert, it seems like too good an opportunity to miss: a live-in nanny position, with a staggeringly generous salary. And when she 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 her in a cell awaiting trial for murder.
She knows she’s made mistakes. But she’s not guilty – at least not of murder. Which means someone else is…
Full of spellbinding menace, The Turn of the Key is a gripping modern-day haunted house novel.

It's a story that will stay in my heart forever ♥️
Having grown up with horror genre and my special fondness for thriller, this book has blown me away and outdone any other books I've read or listened to so far. The turn of the key will teach you things and even more about people , places and circumstances. I'm awake at 2:19 rewriting this review and absolutely fueled by what I felt after finishing this. unmatched . The horror is not in the ghosts , I feel personally it is when you can speak but feel unheard , know the right thing to do but would you deprive the order built in the dominoes, would you just sit there ? I'm having millions questions and no one to answer perhaps that's when I'll go a mile deeper in my soul , that's what Ruth wanted...read it buddy you'll know what I'm saying. If you don't like, coffee is on me

i had very huge expectation about the ending
story started very well and kept me glued to book till end since it was so gripping i expected something very huge coming in d end but my expectation did not meet in d end. the way story picked from beginning i thought ending ll be something exceptional but it was rushed and looked like just somehow it had to be ended. i even thought just bfr 5 mins to end that this book might have a sequel to carry with the pending end!!!!

Performance is the hero
The performance of the reader (Imogen Church)is the hero in the story. The story is decent and is made thrilling by the reading.

When narrator goes Godmode.
I had to stop and search narrator's name. Man, she's so good at it. Her voice acting is perfect.

I recommend it for the narration more than the story.
Whilst the story was alright, it was the narration that stood out for me. Excellent variations between characters, so as to make them very distinct. The little girls' narration bits were especially great. Quite enjoyable.
