Synopsis

From Sandie Jones, the New York Times bestselling author of the Hello Sunshine Book Club pick The Other Woman, comes The Half Sister; a compelling domestic suspense novel about a family who is forever changed when a stranger arrives at their door.

Meet the half sister, and unravel the ties that blind us.

THE TRUTH

Sisters Kate and Lauren meet for Sunday lunch every week without fail, especially after the loss of their father.

THE LIE

But a knock at the door is about to change everything. A young woman by the name of Jess holds a note with the results of a DNA test, claiming to be their half sister.

THE UNTHINKABLE

As the fallout starts, it's clear that they are all hiding secrets, and perhaps this family isn't as perfect as it appears.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books

3.5 rounded up! NOW AVAILABLE! This story may have you thinking TWICE about sending in a DNA sample to a genealogy company! Remember-you cannot choose your family, and you could be opening a whole “can of worms” when you embark on this adventure! Lauren has sent in a “sample” but she never expected “......more
