(4) YA Escaping her dysfunctional family in Detroit to attend college in San Francisco and nanny for a wealthy family, Annie feels as though she's hit the jackpot. But as the Cohen matriarch becomes increasingly demanding and manipulative, Annie begins to question her own sanity. Annie is easy prey and displays little agency, but this tense psychological thriller is still satisfying.
