Kit is working as a waitress which she loves. She has just won a house in a raffle- a house worth £2 million and some cash to help keep it going. We know she has done something that has changed her life as she mentions an incident and has left her old job and boyfriend behind and not spoken to her parents in a long while- something she wouldn't normally do. She begins hearing noises in the house and already has had a pipe leaking. When things take a turn for the worse, she has her suspicions. Is her past catching up with her or is someone out to get her and why?
OMG! One that put me on the edge of my seat and kept me there. This is brilliantly written and the tension is almost palpable at times- a woman on her own in a new large house hearing things almost made me listen out myself (and I’m not on my own!). Kit is likeable, although perhaps a little naive at times, but in a way this made me like her more as like all of us we each have our vulnerabilities. A clearly thought out plot well executed and a clever one that kept me thinking and on the edge of my seat to the very end. Loved it.

Awesome. 5 🌟
Waitress Kit Lowman knows that people look down on her and the job she does. But being anonymous offers Kit safety and security and allows her own terrible secrets to remain hidden. And then Kit’s luck changes, and she suddenly faces a terrible dilemma: reveal her true identity and accept that life will never be the same. Or stay in the shadows…where she hopes she’ll be safe? But secrets can’t stay hidden forever. And the more Kit tries to hide away, the more someone makes it clear that they are going to make her pay for what she did.
I can't reveal much. Read this book.
Thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for giving me an advance copy.
Tense, Menacing, Unexpected…
Kit Lowman, a waitress at heart, was definitely happy and carefree once. She is now not the woman that she was. As she struggles with her present life things begin to take a bizarre, unexpected and tragic turn. What Kit cannot do is make any sense of any of it. As Kit struggles to piece together clues from a catalogue of terrifying events, will she be able to get to the bottom of it all before someone else reaches their own ultimate goal? Tense, menacing and unexpected suspense with a cast of well crafted and credible characters and a twisting plot littered with red herrings and surprises right up to the final denouement. A tension fuelled, one sit read for this reader, both immersive and wholly compelling.
Nina Manning does it again with another great read. If you love thrillers the Waitress will be the book for you. Fast moving and incredibly interesting this is a great story.
