THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"A stunningly clever thriller made doubly suspenseful by not one, but two unreliable narrators." — People
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.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
We all make sacrifices for our loved ones, but the twins in this razor-sharp thriller take things up several notches. When Rose and Fern were young, Rose was always the protector—up to and including helping Fern cover up a shocking accident. Nothing has ever come between the sisters, but when clearheaded interior designer Rose can’t conceive and neurotic librarian Fern volunteers to carry her sister’s baby, once-buried secrets from their less-than-idyllic childhood start to tear their relationship apart. Sally Hepworth makes the dynamic between Fern and Rose feel lived-in and realistic, even as one wild twist after another threatens to turn everything about their world upside down. If you enjoy the heady psychological twists and creepy thrills of Gillian Flynn or Paula Hawkins, you’ll love The Good Sister.
