One Last Lie (The Governess: Book 1)

50-year-old governess Mary Wilcox has dealt with more than her fair share of rich families; and she does so with patience and grace.

But she’s not used to dealing with murder.

When Mary moves into the grand Ashford estate to assume her role as a governess to three children; she is met with the polite formality of the estate’s matriarch and the curiosity of three children.

Little does she know she is stepping foot into a nest of secrets and lies.

As Mary becomes more involved with the family; she begins to suspect foul play in the recent death of the family’s patriarch. Even as she battles her own past demons and struggles to separate past from present; she is forced to wonder—which of the family members should she be protecting?

And who should she be afraid of?
