وصف الناشر
In this "incendiary" memoir, a woman fights the criminal justice system to release her incarcerated sister after she kills her longtime abuser (Publishers Weekly).
In September 2017, a knock on the door upends Michelle Horton’s life: she learns that her sister has just shot her partner and is now in jail. Stunned, Michelle rearranges her life to raise Nikki's two young children alongside her own son.
During the investigation that follows, Michelle is shocked to learn that Nikki had been hiding horrific abuse for years. Michelle launches a fight to bring Nikki home, squaring off against a criminal justice system designed to punish the entire family.
Since Dear Sister’s original publication, Michelle’s fight—alongside a tireless network of supporters—has resulted in Nikki’s release from prison.
With a new chapter, an update from Nikki, and never-before-seen photographs documenting the homecoming, this edition provides a touching new conclusion to a profound, intimate story of resilience and the unbreakable bond of family.

Powerfully beautiful
This should be a must read for all. A true story of strength, perseverance and sisterhood. 💜
Inspiring
Michelle’s memoir, and Nikki’s story have filled me with rage and gut wrenching sorrow for the horrors and injustices they have endured. As both a sister and a mother I felt their faithfulness and love deep in my soul.
Listening to Michelle’s voice read her own words and audio from Nikki’s jail calls home to her babies brought further depth to this already captivating story.
