ABOUT THIS BOOK For a decade, Hannah’s life has been pretty close to perfect – she has a great job, she’s married to Mark, and her child-free existence means she’s free as a bird. The only sadness in her life is a fall-out with her sister Diane, who hasn’t spoken to her in over ten years. But now Diane is on her doorstep – and this time, she’s got her teenage daughter Mia in tow. When Diane asks if Mia can stay with Hannah and Mark for a few days, Hannah is glad of the chance to get to know her niece. But as the days turn into weeks and Diane doesn’t return, Hannah begins to worry. Why hasn’t her sister been in touch? Diane is carrying a devastating secret that will destroy Hannah’s carefully constructed life. But how much is she willing to reveal – and when will she pick her moment? MY REVIEW If you want a story that will tug at your heartstrings, characters that will engage and connect with you at every turn, and a plot that will keep you gripped the whole way through, then look no further than MY SISTER'S LIES by S.D. Robertson. Hannah is happy with her marriage and her new career as an author. Sometimes she wonders about her sister Diane, a sister whom she hasn't seen or spoken to in over ten years, but the thought always passes. They had always had a tempestuous relationship so she has made a sort of peace with their estrangement. But Hannah does miss Mia, her niece, especially since Mark her husband never wanted children and she agreed. So when Diane and Mia land at her door out of the blue needing her help, Hannah isn't sure how to feel but she would do anything to reconnect with Mia so agrees that Mia can stay with them while Diane sorts out a few of her problems. But when Diane doesn't reappear after a week, they all start to worry but nobody is prepared for the truth. Diane has been hiding many things, some of which could destroy everyone she ever cared about ... S.D. Robertson writes excellent books about messy lives and true emotions and MY SISTER'S LIES is no exception. The characters have all mucked up in some shape or form which is relatable and as they try to navigate the secrets and lies, as a reader I could really feel their pain and shock, their heartache and their need. Yet again, this talented author made me cry with his words and I defy any of you to turn the last page and not feel a lump in your throat. The drama, the untruths, the pace, everything is perfectly executed in MY SISTER'S LIES and I highly recommend it to all readers who enjoy reading family dramas and emotional novels. This will definitely be on my list for top books for this year. AUTHOR BIO Former journalist S.D.
