Reviews

Just as good as the first!

"I had to read this one right after I finished the first book. It was similar in the formula of plot and character development to the first book. However, it still provides the great twists and an excellent ending that I didn't see coming. I will eventually read the third one."

A Dark, Addictive Thriller I Couldn’t Put Down

"The Housemaid’s Secret is exactly the kind of psychological thriller that keeps you up far too late because you need to know what happens next. Freida McFadden delivers another fast‑paced, twist‑heavy story that hooked me from the first chapter and never let go. The plot follows Millie as she steps into a new housekeeping job that seems strange from the start—locked rooms, whispered warnings, and a wife who appears terrified of her own husband. McFadden builds tension with short, punchy chapters and reveals that land at just the right moment. I loved how the story constantly made me question who to trust and what was really happening behind closed doors. Millie is a compelling narrator: flawed, determined, and surprisingly resourceful. Watching her navigate danger while confronting her own past made the story even more gripping. And the final twist? Completely satisfying. If you enjoy domestic suspense with sharp turns, unreliable characters, and that signature McFadden “I did NOT see that coming” energy, this book is absolutely worth adding to your shelf. A quick, thrilling read that delivers exactly what it promises."

Salvation Army gift

"I really enjoyed the first housemaid book by Frieda McFadden, this one was just as good! The Housemaid’s Secret also had a few good plot twists. I specifically bought this book and the entire series for a Christmas gift for the Salvation Army!"

Kenzie (4/5)

Great thriller read!

"Though I enjoyed this book, it was very reminiscent and kind of repetitive of the first one. The twists were a bit predictable. I have heard the last one is amazing so I’ll move onto that one and see if it’s all it’s hyped up to Be! Still worth the read though… I mean I picked it up and literally couldn’t put it down. So it was catchy!"

Kylee (4/5)

I read this book in less than 24 hours

"I love the way this authors writing and how they told this story. Shorter chapters which makes it easy for people to take breaks or pause to go to bed. Although I read the whole book in less than 24 hours because I could not put it down. . there are 2 other books in this series that I plan to read asap as well as other books from this author."

Kaiii (5/5)

Frieda has done it again

"Unreal book. I just started reading Freida books this year and already went through 7 of them. Cant wait to watch this movie next Christmas."

Nora (5/5)

Don’t miss this thriller!

"The Housemaid’s Secret was so captivating that I simply couldn’t stop reading. Just when you’re certain where the story is going another incredible twist comes your way leaving you in shock. When I finished it I immediately ordered the third book in the Housemaid series."

A M. (5/5)

'The Housemaid's Secret' is a gripping thriller that exceeds expectations. The author masterfully weaves an intricate plot, packed with surprising twists. The return of familiar characters from book 1

"4/5 stars! 'The Housemaid's Secret' delivers an unexpected plot twist, keeping me on the edge. A great follow-up to the first book, with returning characters adding depth. Read book 1 first for maximum impact. A thrilling page-turner"

Abi. S. (4/5)

10/10!!!

"I didn’t think this book would be even better than the first, but it was! It truly exceeded my expectations and left me in suspense as the plot progressed. I finished this during the weekend, so that should tell you just how good it was!"

Mariah (5/5)
