--------------------------
You’ve known her all your life…
Or have you?
Tasha and her older sister Alice might look alike, but they couldn’t be more different.
Tasha’s married with two children and still living in her home town near Bristol. While Alice is a high-flying scientist travelling the world with her equally successful husband.
But each would trust the other with their life.
So when Tasha and husband Aaron want a break and Alice offers to stay in their home with the kids,
Tasha knows they’re in safe hands.
But she couldn’t be more wrong.
The call from home is unexpected: Alice and her husband Kyle have been attacked.
Alice is in intensive care. Kyle is dead.
Rushing to Alice’s bedside, Tasha finds the police trying to piece events together.
She can’t think why anyone would attack her sister.
Then the note arrives, addressed to Tasha:
It was supposed to be you . . .

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
She writes a thriller a year and this is her 10th, but Douglas shows no sign of genre fatigue–indeed The Wrong Sister is one of those rare domestic noir novels where you genuinely don’t spot the twists until they’re upon you. Tasha, a young mum of twins who’s a bit bored with her life, plans a “life swap” holiday with her glam, high-achieving sister Alice. So off Tasha and her husband swan to Alice’s fancy flat in Venice, while Alice and her hot, rich, successful partner arrive in Tasha’s close-knit community to babysit the twins. Things soon start to go horribly, violently wrong, and bodies begin to pile up. Douglas deftly captures the airlessness of smalltown life, where everyone knows everyone else’s business, and submerged secrets have a habit of bubbling up to the surface.
Customer Reviews
Overall good
A good book, lots of twists and a good plot. Not really worth £7.99 as it was a bit basic and lacked depth/tension in some parts. Overall, enjoyable.
Great book
I love Claire Douglas and her writing. This book was another great read from her, the twists kept me gripped throughout and the end was unexpected. I couldn’t put this down at all and had to find out the answers. I would definitely recommend.
