The Good Sister by Sally HepworthRead about the other entries on the list at CrimeReads.
One could be forgiven at first for thinking this is a family novel about two adult sisters navigating their complicated relationship. Hang on, because these two sisters are not the people they claim or appear to be, and one of them is playing mind games with the reader. These two fully-developed characters have such different takes on their shared troubled childhood, as well as events that unfold during the book, that we are forced to take sides. Only when the truth is revealed do we realize how easily we have been manipulated.
--Marshal Zeringue
