Product Description
Jude Brown is a builder by day, artist by night. He and speech therapist Alex Levin have both survived tragedies. Thrown together by a workmate's accident, they're both working hard at reshaping their lives - and sometimes, hardworking people need a little help around the house. Alex has never met anyone as passionate about cleaning as Frankie Barnes. She seems to have found the perfect career to suit her obsession with hygiene. But unbeknown to her new employers, Frankie suffers from other compulsions too and the greatest of them all is the compulsion to have. All Frankie wants is a home of her own as lovely as the ones she scrubs and cleans. She'll do anything to achiever her aim. But her first attempt has gone horribly wrong and her dream house loses its shine when she allows herself to think about the two bodies slowly rotting in the cellar. Next time Frankie intends to be more careful with her planningAnd Alex's home is the prettiest cottage Frankie's ever laid eyes on

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, 5 Mar 2009
This is a strange book in that it doesn't develop at all as you would expect from reading the synopsis. It's about an obseessive cleaner with OCD who sees something she wants and has to have it, in this case, her client's beautiful home. No matter that she has to murder to get it. We're then led to expect her to try to kill the book's heroine for her home when things go wrong at House No 1 but it doesn't quite follow. Nevertheless it's an interesting and at times, exciting read, with short, snappy chapters and on the whole very enjoyable.
