True confession time. This is the first Sally Hepworth novel I've read. And what exactly took me so long??
The Good Sister was a most solid entry into my domestic thriller reading!
Fern and Rose are fraternal twins, with a unique relationship. Fern has sensory processing issues and Rose is "her person" - the one who keeps her grounded and functional through some of her unique challenges.
When Fern learns Rose is unable to have a child, she takes it upon herself to remedy the situation.
This is where I shall leave the description, as you don't want to know more than that going into it! As with any good thriller, things may not be as they seem.
Some great characterization here and I especially enjoyed Wally/Rocco.
Do be sure to check this one out and let it pull you in! I'll absolutely be back for more - The Mother-In-Law and The Family Next Door are on my TBR cart.
Recommended!
