The Turn of the Key Summary

The Turn of the Key: the addictive new thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author by Ruth Ware

IT WAS THE DREAM JOB. IT WOULD BECOME HER WORST NIGHTMARE.

'So clever and original . . . from the first gripping page to the last shocking twist' ERIN KELLY, author of He Said/She Said

'Ruth Ware just gets better and better. The Turn of the Key is her most compelling and addictive to date; I read this in a two sitting frenzy, barely able to turn the pages fast enough' Lisa Jewell, author of The People Upstairs

When Rowan stumbles across the advert, it seems like too good an opportunity to miss: a live-in nanny position, with a very generous salary. And when she arrives at Heatherbrae House, she is smitten by the luxurious 'smart' home fitted out with all modern conveniences by a 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 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...

'Will hold you captive until the brilliant ending' SHARI LAPENA, author of Someone We Know

Full of chilling menace and sinister secrets, The Turn of the Key is a gripping modern-day haunted house novel that will keep you reading through the night.

'Dark and dramatic...part murder mystery, part family drama, altogether riveting' A.J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Window

'Creepy, engrossing, and oh-so-hard to put down' JP Delaney, author of The Girl Before

'Dark, unsettling, brilliant' HEAT

The Turn of the Key Reviews

So clever and original . . . Pure suspense, from the first gripping page to the last shocking twist -- Erin Kelly
Ware tells a cracking tale and, as in her breakout novel In a Dark, Dark Wood, the house itself plays a hugely menacing part in proceedings. * Guardian *

An ingenious suspense narrative...Ware pulls out a stunner on the penultimate page that radically alters how we interpret everything that's come before. I daresay even Henry James would be impressed. * Washington Post *
A ghost story for the twenty-first century, a propulsive gothic thriller with characters you'll really care about. With this book, Ruth Ware proves she's the true heir to Wilkie Collins. Creepy, engrossing, and oh-so-hard to put down -- JP Delaney
Ruth Ware just gets better and better. The Turn of the Key is her most compelling and addictive to date; I read this in a two sitting frenzy, barely able to turn the pages fast enough. * Lisa Jewell, author of The Family Upstairs *
Diabolically clever. Twisty and creepy, THE TURN OF THE KEY is Ruth Ware's best book yet. Read with a blanket nearby, because you will get shivers up your spine
The Turn of the Key is a brilliantly crafted, chilling suspense thriller. Clues are seeded through the tale like poisonous plants that you only recognise when it's far too late. Trust no one in this novel except Ruth Ware - she has come up with a totally compelling tale once again -- Jane Casey
A masterclass in tension! -- Sarah Pinborough
The Turn of the Key is a delicious read - a sympathetic but fallible narrator is accused of a terrible crime. The clever unfolding of her story will hold you captive till the brilliant ending. Vintage Ruth Ware -- Shari Lapena

[Ruth Ware is] an adroit practitioner in the art of psychological suspense . . . Thoughtful and provocative * i *
