The Locked Ward
by Sarah Pekkanen
fast-paced
The Locked Ward was a fast-paced, twisty thriller that centered around twins, Georgia and Amanda, who were separated at birth. Georgia has been accused of killing her sister Annabelle and has been placed in a locked psychiatric ward until it can be determined if she is competent to stand trial. Amanda is living her own life until she receives a phone call that turns her entire life upside down, the woman who has been all over the news for killing her sister is actually Amanda's twin and she wants to see her. During that first visit Georgia only says one thing, It wasn't me.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, just as I have every other Sarah Pekkanen book I've read. The character's were all completely unreliable and some of the plot twists genuinely had me shocked! The writing style did take a bit to get used to because Amanda's POV is 1st person while Georgia's was 2nd person. Overall though it was a very enjoyable book that I highly recommend checking out.
Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the eARC I received in exchange for an honest review. The Locked Ward releases August 5, 2025.
