Nanny nightmare

A high-flying working mother in an office meeting takes a frantic call from her new nanny. The baby's had a fit and they're at the hospital. Soon the baby is dead from being shaken and the nanny is on trial for murder. But she knows something the parents don't... or won't admit to. In fact, every character has a secret in the new novel Close to Home by Eileen Macdonald, and they're not all revealed until the nail-biting finish. This thriller is published by Simon and Schuster UK at 10.99, and Professional Nanny has five copies to give away free to readers. Just send your name and address on a postcard or sealed envelope marked 'Close to Home' to our address on page three. The first five entries out of the hat on 24 July will find out who dunnit!
