Book Description

Sally Hepworth, the author of The Mother-In-Law delivers a knock-out of a novel about the lies that bind two sisters in The Good Sister.

There's only been one time that Rose couldn't stop me from doing the wrong thing and that was a mistake that will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Fern Castle works in her local library. She has dinner with her twin sister Rose three nights a week. And she avoids crowds, bright lights and loud noises as much as possible. Fern has a carefully structured life and disrupting her routine can be...dangerous.

When Rose discovers that she cannot get pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay her sister back for everything Rose has done for her. Fern can have a baby for Rose. She just needs to find a father. Simple.

Fern's mission will shake the foundations of the life she has carefully built for herself and stir up dark secrets from the past, in this quirky, rich and shocking story of what families keep hidden.

My Thoughts

This was my first Sally Hepworth novel and I enjoyed it a lot. Part suspense, part family drama. Unexpected twists, and unforgettable characters.

I though the author did a good job in handling family dynamics, and sibling relationships. Being Rose and Fern twin sisters. The story is so fascinating, to see this sister's bond and how it works, develops and changes thought the pages. you get easily invested in it and can't put it down. A very well-written and enjoyable thriller. 

Thank you St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for the free Advanced Copy in Exchange for an honest review.
