Night Care

Night Care - When helping becomes a trap is a fast-paced psychological thriller / domestic thriller about gaslighting, manipulation, and the terrifying moment your own memory turns against you.

Mara takes a night-shift job as a live-in caregiver in the secluded mansion of the wealthy Kessler family-because she needs to disappear. The rules are strict: no visitors, no photos, no private calls... and the basement is off-limits. Her patient, Victor, is said to be nearly mute after a stroke.

On her very first night, Victor leans close and whispers Mara's old name-one that shouldn't exist anymore.

Mara wants to leave. But Evelyn, Victor's flawless, controlling daughter-in-law, knows far too much about Mara's past. Quitting would expose everything.

Then reality starts to fracture. Medication logs don't match. Objects move. Security footage appears that incriminates Mara-showing things she can't remember doing. Each night tightens the trap until Mara can't tell who is victim, who is predator, and who is rewriting the truth.

When she finally finds a second medical file-made out in her name-Mara realizes the job was never an accident. The plan started before she arrived. And she's the perfect scapegoat.

Perfect for readers who love twisty page-turners, locked-house suspense, and psychological mind games.
