The Silent Sister

By: Shalini Boland

Narrated by: Katie Villa

"You don't deserve a sister...."

Lizzy Beresford is at home alone when she finds a chilling letter in her kitchen. Someone has been into her home - someone who wishes Lizzy harm.

In her little country cottage, with her doting boyfriend, not far from the close-knit village, Lizzy can’t imagine who might want to hurt her. But when the threatening letters keep coming, she starts to suspect everyone around her.

Desperate, Lizzy reaches out to her sister, Emma. They haven’t spoken in years, not since the argument that tore them apart.

But what Emma says shocks her to the core:

"I’ve been receiving letters too...."

From the best-selling author of The Secret Mother and The Child Next Door, this absolutely enthralling psychological thriller will keep you guessing with every heart-stopping twist. If you loved Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train, and The Sister, this book is for you.

Critic reviews

"Wow and wow again...a nail biting, fast-paced roller coaster ride that is packed full of so many twists and turns...jaw dropping...it's worth far more than five stars." (Nicki’s Life of Crime, 5 stars)

Couldn’t stop listening. Absolutely LOVED it!

I love this author and all of her books. She is amazing. I love the way she keeps you guessing with lots of turns in her stories.

Not Her Best...

I'm a fan of her work, but this one was subpar for me. The main character was irritatingly naive & made a lot of poor decisions IMO. Not an awful book. and as per Boland's norm, a twist at the end. But overall an average book.

AMAZING!!!

Absolutely loved this. Twists and turns are never ending even up to and including the Epilogue!! Hated for it to end.

Not what I was expecting

Knowing nothing about this book other than title, listening to the preview. I ordered it. Definitely not what I was expecting. Suspenseful, definitely a thriller. Results at the end is definitely not what I expected. Murder? maybe, maybe not. Definitely worth a listen. Looking forward to the next book

It’s Fiction!

Entertaining story. Katie Villa is my favorite British narrator❤️. Really appreciate her efforts at conveying suspense without shouting. I really didn’t connect with or care about any of the characters except for Frank. I am so glad that he was not abused or mistreated. The relationships between and among the sisters, their beaus, siblings of friends and friends were added spice to the story. This story could have gone so many different ways. As a fan of Shalini Boland, I always expect the unexpected epilogues.

Good read

Would have liked to have seen a little more character development for the background story. Otherwise a decent read not too intense but interesting.

Ending

I did not like this ending made me want more the rest of the story

Ending was surprising!! Wow!

This is a definite by no questions asked an Excellent book. The character development was phenomenal. I’m going to recommend this to my sister to read.

how did that happen?

I never saw it coming! another great novel by Shalini Boland. keep writing cause I'll keep reading!

Good suspense!

I was a little disappointed in the ending but it did leave room for a sequel. And the epilogue made up for it!
