Sisters, secrets, and a life disrupted

Fern Castle’s tightly arranged routine is shaped around her work at a local library and her close relationship with her twin sister, Rose. When Rose learns she cannot get pregnant, Fern offers to carry a child for her, a decision that brings a new search for a father into a family history marked by hidden truths. The premise links questions of sisterly debt and care with the practical and personal consequences of trying to build a family. Fern’s carefully maintained life—and the secret from the past that still haunts her—sit at the center of the novel’s domestic suspense.

Book overview

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"A stunningly clever thriller made doubly suspenseful by not one, but two unreliable narrators."--People

Sally Hepworth, the author of The Mother-In-Law delivers a knock-out of a novel about the lies that bind two sisters in The Good Sister.

There's only been one time that Rose couldn't stop me from doing the wrong thing and that was a mistake that will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Fern Castle works in her local library. She has dinner with her twin sister Rose three nights a week. And she avoids crowds, bright lights, and loud noises as much as possible. Fern has a carefully structured life and disrupting her routine can be...dangerous.

When Rose discovers that she cannot get pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay her sister back for everything Rose has done for her. Fern can have a baby for Rose. She just needs to find a father. Simple.

Fern's mission will shake the foundations of the life she has carefully built for herself and stir up dark secrets from the past, in this quirky, rich, and shocking story of what families keep hidden.
