A review by novellearts
The Wrong Sister by Claire Douglas

3.0

Realistically this would be 3.5 stars for me.

This story starts with two sisters, Tasha and Alice, doing a bit of a house swap with their husbands. Tasha and her husband Aaron have two kids and Alice offers to babysit with her husband Kyle. While Tasha and Aaron are freshly on vacation to rekindle their spark, they have a concerning encounter in Venice. Afterwards leading to an even more concerning phone call alerting them to an accident in their house back home leaving Alice in the hospital and Kyle dead. This story spirals into an investigation to find out who did it and why. There are a lot of unknowns and many secrets to be uncovered. 

I’m a bit conflicted on this one. I enjoyed the beginning of this book a lot, then towards the middle it lost steam for me and picked back up towards the end. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the multiple POV’s either but I did enjoy the plot twist. I had my strong suspicions on who I thought was the murderer, but I wasn’t sure how it would make sense until I made it to the end of the book. I think I’ve maybe read one other book that took this route of a plot twist, but I still liked it. 

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ebook. As always, all thoughts are my own.
