My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher on
NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*
Sister Sister is the second book by Sue Fortin I have read and I
have to say I fell even more in love with her writing.
The story follows Claire,
she is a solicitor, married to Luke and they have two beautiful daughters. Her
mum Marion lives with them. There is a time during the year where both Claire
and Marion get sad and think about …’s sister Alice. She now lives in America
and was taken from Claire their lives, when the father decide to leave.
This has been really hard on
both women. Why did he take Alice and not Claire? Why couldn’t they find Alice?
Questions and questions…
One day they get surprised
by a letter from Alice, that’s when it all changes. Alice visits them and at
first everything is fine. Especially Marion is very happy to get to know her
daughter. Claire however, gets more and more suspicious, because weird things
start to happen. Accidents, broken things and more. After a while there is even
the police involved and Claire gets blamed for everything. Alice also flirts
with Luke and spends a lot of time with her daughters while she is at work.
Claire sees her world
falling apart, everyone blames her for the bad things that happen and nobody
believes her. She is determined to find out the truth about Alice. What she
finds out is shocking! It involves some other people as well, some she thought
she knew well and also new people.
The storyline in this book
is very clever. It builds up and up until you just want to go and help Claire
reveal everything. It’s so hard to see her struggle, but it’s part of the
story, which is very gripping, riveting, spellbinding and mesmerizing. I got so
hooked, because I just wanted to find out the truth. You can feel the tension
through the words and you just can’t let go.
This is a thriller full of
twists and turns and it includes family, love and friendship. These things all
put together with great writing create a novel you can’t miss. I’m not that big
on thrillers, but this one is fabulous!!! You don’t know which way the story is
going and that’s fascinating!
This book is a definite must
read!!!
