APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
My Husband’s Wife introduced Jane Corry as a thrilling new voice in psychological thrillers. Blood Sisters cements her reputation. This is a premium thriller—one that drips with suspense and intrigue as you’re forced to second guess every character’s motives. We track Alison and Kitty, two girls who emerged from a childhood ordeal that took the life of their school friend. Both are scarred from that fateful day, but only one carries guilt. Discovering which is a devilishly rewarding journey.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Two young women inextricably linked by a catastrophic car crash and secrets one will never forget and the other may never remember drive this engrossing, if ultimately unconvincing, psychological suspense novel from British author Corry (My Husband's Wife). Chapters shift perspective between that of London art teacher Alison Baker and the institutionalized Kitty James, and from the present back to 2001 when everything changed for both of them, trapping the former in a prison of guilt and the latter in a brain-damaged body unable to communicate the thoughts she still experiences clearly. Ironically, it's cash-strapped Alison's dangerous decision to take a part-time job teaching inmates at a men's prison not far from where she grew up that just may offer her a more lasting release than her habitual self-cutting if it doesn't destroy her first. Though readers may suss out the relationship between Alison and Kitty well before Corry makes it explicit, she maintains momentum with several startling late plot twists a number of which, unfortunately, are far-fetched.)

Unbelievable
A bit of a chore to read, story is silly and I had to stop just over half way through. Very unbelievable and characters weren’t good people or even likeable in any way.
Far fetched
This book is a strange one - it’s pleasant to read but becomes very far fetched in places which I (personally) find off putting.
