A Promise to Late Housekeeper Leads to Unforgettable Search for the Truth
The increasingly popular memoir genre may not be famous for unputdownable books but The Housekeeper’s Secret by Sandra (Krilich) Schnakenburg is certainly one such memoir. The story reads like a fast-paced novel, with an ensemble cast of well-defined characters and a mystery to solve from the start. Per its title, Schnakenburg writes about the Krilich family’s beloved housekeeper Lee Metoyer and the author’s efforts — thanks to a poignant deathbed request from Lee herself — to piece together Lee’s secret past.
