Plot

Liz Guinness loses her husband when he is killed as a bystander at an armed robbery. Dr Richard Keaton, a rich scientist and widower, hires her as the nanny for his twelve-year-old son Andrew. On her arrival at a big remote country house, the cab driver tells her to call him in case of any trouble and wishes her "Good luck, you're gonna need it!" Guinness is let in by a sinister housekeeper using CCTV and later gathers that the late Alycia Keaton fell to her death, that this was put down as suicide but was suspected to have been murder, and also that previous nannies have not stayed long. Keaton gives Guinness minimal duties and tells her not to disturb him or his son. Keaton's brother Blain Keaton arrives at the house with his girlfriend Jillian and wants the property to be sold. Strange events then unfold.
