Summary
Ashling is every busy parent’s dream: a professional nanny with experience and a warm, sunny attitude. But from the moment Mary hires her to look after her young children, things start to feel just a little...off. Are Mary’s stressful work schedule and lack of sleep playing games with her own sanity, or has she welcomed an unstable troublemaker into her home?
A harrowing and hilarious psychological thriller whose sense of disquiet builds with each passing scene, Erica Schmidt’s Lucy is sure to disturb and delight parents and non-parents alike. After all, if you can’t even be sure what’s happening in your home when you’re away, what can you be sure of?

Why Lucy?
Not sure why this is called 'Lucy', when Lucy was a minor character in the plot.
A good potential for a longer thriller, but predictable & unrealistic in places.
I could see what was coming from the start & it got a little frustrating that so much of what the nanny said did not add up, but Mary didn’t really question it or see through her obviously false statements & sudden changes of subject when she did question her. As soon as the children started to act up, surely that would’ve been a huge red flag? Nanny cam anyone!
Overall, an enjoyable short story, but the sudden ending with no real resolution was disappointing.
I would've liked to have seen the nanny brought to justice or see her working her way into another family with Mary trying to warn them.

crazy
I really enjoyed this. Totally crazy stuff and every mothers nightmare, but who can't see the weirdness from the start?
