Summary
The Silent Sister is a gripping novel from Diane Chamberlain, the bestselling author of The Midwife's Confession.
What if everything you believed turned out to be a lie?
Riley MacPherson is returning to her childhood home in North Carolina. A place that holds cherished memories. While clearing out the house, she finds a box of old newspaper articles - and a shocking family secret begins to unravel. Riley has spent her whole life believing that her older sister, Lisa, died tragically as a teenager. But now she's starting to uncover the truth: her life has been built on a foundation of lies, told by everyone she loved.
Lisa is alive. Alive and living under a new identity. But why exactly was she on the run all those years ago, and what secrets are being kept now?
As Riley tries to separate reality from fiction, her discoveries call into question everything she thought she knew about her family. Can she find the strength inside herself to decide her future?
Incredibly gripping and emotionally powerful, The Silent Sister is perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult and Liane Moriarty.

Complex relationships and story. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the character development and the storyline from different perspectives. A good story which continued to develop until the end.

Complex twist in the story
The first part of the book while trying to set the scene was way too long. As it moved on things improved but I guessed the background but I thought the ending could have been rounded off better.

Couldn’t put it down!
Well I’ve discovered that I am one hell of a multitasker as I listened to this book IN A DAY! This may not sound like a mammoth task but I have a very active 14 month old baby! It’s amazing the housework you can get through or find with a good book in the background to listen to! I had my daughter Frankie help me clean under our bed just so I could listen to more!
I’m not going to regurgitate the Amazon review as they are always bang on and I’ve finished writing literary essays years ago haha However I have 142 books in my library and I love Diane Chamberlain as there is no profanity (so my child can learn all her bad language exclusively from me haha) and there are no gruesome or macabre scenes that might turn my bundle of joy into a budding serial killer. All in all the most enthralled one can feel without ending up pregnant

ignore the bad reviews
if you are like me before I bought this book; in search for a book you wouldn't be able to put down, a story that would grab you and pull you in, then I think you should go for this book. ignore the bad reviews because this was such a good book! well written, original and well read! I loved it!!

Really enjoyable
I really enjoyed this book. The characters drew me in from the very start. I wanted to listen more & more and heard most of it on a snowy Sunday, unusual for the UK. I found the narrators voice ‘grating’ at first but I got accustomed to it as story unfolded. I thought she read the story really well putting much expression into the characters. Would recommend this book.
