My Sister by Michelle Adams
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
My name is Irini. Our parents sent me away.
My sister is Elle. They kept her.
Families should stay together. What happened that day ripped mine apart.
A successful doctor, with a loving boyfriend, Irini Harringford is finally happy. But when Elle tracks her down everything starts to unravel.
Irini knows only too well what her sister is capable of. However, her desperate need for answers drags her back to a shocking past.
She always thought her family didn't want her. What if the truth is even worse?
I really enjoyed this psychological thriller and the bonds that tie siblings together.
Irine is sent away from the family home to live with her aunt and uncle when she is three years old. She grows up believing that her parents didn’t want her while they kept her sister Elle.
Irine cuts herself off from her family but is constantly pursued by her sister Elle so much so that Irine is forced to keep moving to stay away from her. Elle is toxic and dangerous and Irine doesn’t want her in her life. When their mother dies Irine goes reluctantly back to the family home hoping to get answers of why her parents sent her away and kept Elle - what she eventually finds out threatens to destroy many lives.
A good psychological thriller that uncovers jealousy and hidden truths. Ellie is manipulating and crazy but I also felt that Irine was also a little weird and wicked.
A good pace and well thought out plot made this an enjoyable and interesting read. A few red herrings and twists add up to a satisfying read. Definitely worth 4 stars - a recommended read.
I would like to thank the publisher for sending this in exchange for an honest review.
