Dying to Tell by Rita Herron

4.0

This book was excellent. My first thoughts were that it wasn't much of a Suspense novel if the author gave away the killer but then, I realized it was so much more...

"Hell, he’d keep an eye on Sadie like he always had. And if she got out of hand, or if Amelia spilled her secrets, he’d take care of both of them."

Sadie returns home to Slaughterhouse Creek after 10 years after receiving a phonecall from her Sister's alter ego, only to find it was too late and she killed her grandfather. Eager to find out which alter killed him and why, Sadie is forced to work with Jake, the man she loved and was forced to leave.
As the investigation got under way, they began to find a lot of inconsistencies and mistreatment of patients. Did Sadie's mentally ill sister Amelia really kill her grandfather or did someone else?

I enjoyed the twists and turns throughout the story. There was a bit of romance but not really enough to dominate or distort the story. I really enjoyed the constant back and forth between the alters and how well each of their characteristics were portrayed.
