Description



About the Book



"My name is Darcy, I'm your nurse and I'm here to help you.' I repeat the words I've said so many times. Except this time, I don't mean it... If you saw me walking down the street, you'd think I was pretty ordinary - I wear the typical crisp, white nursing uniform, my hands are scrubbed clean and you'd have no reason to believe I was anything other than a good citizen. A good nurse. But looks can be deceiving. You shouldn't trust me - because I don't even know if I can trust myself. Now I stare at the reflection in the mirror - dark smudges under my eyes and blood on my hands - listening for the sound of police sirens. Because the truth is I had to do something terrible. I broke all the rules a nurse should follow. I wanted someone gone so badly. And now they're dead because of me. I'm looking over my shoulder everywhere I go because I'm sure someone knows my secret. Then when my home is broken into I know one simple truth: this isn't over yet... It's only the beginning"--



Book Synopsis



'My name is Darcy, I'm your nurse and I'm here to help you.' I repeat the words I've said so many times. Except this time, I don't mean it...


If you saw me walking down the street, you'd think I was pretty ordinary - I wear the typical crisp, white nursing uniform, my hands are scrubbed clean and you'd have no reason to believe I was anything other than a good citizen. A good nurse.


But looks can be deceiving. You shouldn't trust me - because I don't even know if I can trust myself.


Now I stare at the reflection in the mirror - dark smudges under my eyes and blood on my hands - listening for the sound of police sirens.


Because the truth is I had to do something terrible. I broke all the rules a nurse should follow. I wanted someone gone so badly. And now they're dead because of me.

I'm looking over my shoulder everywhere I go because I'm sure someone knows my secret. Then when my home is broken into I know one simple truth: this isn't over yet...


It's only the beginning.


The police are the least of my worries now. But to save myself, am I going to have to kill again?

Nothing is as it seems!

The Perfect Nurse, by Daniel Hurst is a suspense-building book about a woman working as an in-home nurse for an affluent family. The wife, a former nurse herself, is experiencing amnesia and difficulty with mobility after a traumatic brain injury- or is she? From the start, main character “Darcy”, has a bad feeling about this family but can’t quite place why. As the days go on, she becomes more and more unsettled by this couple and the lengths they’ll go to, to get what they want. I really struggled to get into this book initially. I found the first few pages to be repetitive and almost juvenile. I also found it hard to read in an American accent, as they’re in Chicago, but the writing feels British. The terminology and sentence structure is consistent with a setting in Europe, but there was no suggestion that the characters were originally from anywhere but Chicago. Once I got into the story, I did find the suspense building and the desire to get to the end increasing. I would consider this more of a popcorn thriller in that you could see the twists lining up as the chapters progressed. Overall, I did enjoy the story and was eager to find out how it ended. Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC.
