    • Chaque jour, Millie fait le ménage dans la belle maison des Winchester, une riche famille new-yorkaise. Elle récupère aussi leur fille à l'école et prépare les repas avant d'aller se coucher dans sa chambre, au grenier. Pour la jeune femme, ce nouveau travail est une chance inespérée. L'occasion de repartir de zéro. Mais, sous des dehors respectables, sa patronne se montre de plus en plus instable et toxique.

Winchester est là pour rendre la situation plus supportable. Mais le danger se tapit parfois sous des apparences trompeuses. Et lorsque Millie découvre que la porte de sa chambre mansardée ne ferme que de l'extérieur, il est peut-être déjà trop tard...
