About this listen

** From the bestselling author of Amazon Number One series THE GIRLFRIEND **

Sisters
is an unsettling story of sibling rivalry by the number one bestselling author of The Girlfriend, Michelle Frances.


'Terrific . . . Twisted, fraught with suspense' - Jo Spain

'I tore through the pages, desperate to discover the terrible secret that separates Abby and Ellie. This high-speed chase of a novel is a perfect summer read' - Louise Candlish

Is blood really thicker than water?

Abby and Ellie were never close as children. Now in their thirties, they each harbour deep-rooted resentment for the other - Abby for her sister's looks and her status as their mother's favourite. Ellie meanwhile is envious of Abby's perfect husband and picturesque home, a villa on the sun-soaked Italian island of Elba.

When Abby invites Ellie to stay, both sisters see the break as a chance to relax and put aside their differences. But with their mother Susanna there too, all the simmering tensions of the past quickly rise to the surface. And Ellie suspects that Abby and their mother are keeping a dangerous secret . . .

But after a shocking act, the sisters have only each other to rely on. Vulnerable and scared, trusting each other will be the biggest risk of all . . .

Critic reviews

There’s something more sinister than sibling rivalry lurking in Sisters and I tore through the pages, desperate to discover the terrible secret that separates Abby and Ellie. This high-speed chase of a novel is a perfect summer read. (Louise Candlish)
Terrific . . . Twisted, fraught with suspense, a proper summer page-turner (Jo Spain)
Toxic family relationships, sultry European settings and an intricate plot which leaves you never knowing who to trust - an ideal read for the beach (Catherine Cooper, author of The Chalet)
Fans of BBC drama The Replacement will lap up this taut and suspenseful tale [The Temp]
I was blown away. The Girlfriend is the most marvellous psychological thriller . . . I couldn’t put it down and kept sneaking upstairs to read another few pages . . . Michelle Frances is a writer we’re going to hear a great deal about. Please read this genuinely exciting novel (Jilly Cooper)
Impressively compelling debut; the tension positively oozes from the pages . . . Keeps the reader on a knife-edge throughout [The Girlfriend] (The Press Association)
Michelle Frances manages to bring fresh energy to this age-old theme of sibling rivalry and family secrets . . . The finale doesn't disappoint

after a promising start story wise and able to tune out some of the narrator's irritating habits the accents got worse and the story kept dragging. Most of the characters are unlikable and it really could have been over sooner.

Drags on and on and on
