Thank you NetGalley, St. Martins Press, and Libro.fm for the eARC and ALC for The Good Sister.
Wow. This was my first Sally Hepworth novel and it certainly won't be my last. The Good Sister was right up my alley in the way that I wanted to throw it against the wall because I was so frustrated and HAD to know what was happening next. I was constantly shaking my head and asking myself, "What just happened?" and "Did that really just happen?!". The dynamic between twin sisters Fern and Rose left me wondering who really was the "good sister" for a big chunk of the book and the twists DID NOT disappoint.
If you're looking for a new psychological thriller with twisted family dynamics, pick The Good Sister up.
