The Wrong Sister weaves a tangled web of intrigue and family dynamics. Alice and Kyle are trading homes and lives with her sister Tasha and Aarron for a week. It's the first time, Aaron and Tasha leave their twins. The women live totally different lives. Their mother moved to France after their father died. Their little sister was abducted as an infant and never found. While on vacation, Tasha and Aaron are followed by a knife wielding man. The trip is cut short by devastating news, Alice is in the hospital and Kyle is dead in a home invasion. The stories of the family are all tangled together. One string is unraveled and another tangled. One of the best books I have read this year.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Plenty of twists and turns to keep me guessing. There was good character development and i definitely didn’t see it ending the way that it did. I will definitely be checking out more from this author. Thanks for the ARC!

Tasha and Alice are sisters, although their lives are quite different. Tasha and her husband Aaron have small twin daughters and both work in jobs that don't pay exceptionally well. Alice and her husband Kyle are currently childless, but they live lives full of material and professional success. Alice works in medical research and Kyle has inherited a lot of family money. When Alice offers to let Tasha and Aaron use their Venice apartment for a much-needed getaway, it doesn't take long for them to agree. Alice and Kyle will stay at Tasha's house and watch the girls, so it's like the two sisters are, briefly, exchanging lives. In Venice, Tasha can't resist wearing Alice's expensive clothes, and with their similar coloring, it seems that a sinister man who begins following the couple may think he's targeting Alice. When a tragedy happens back home, Tasha puts the scary encounter out of her mind and rushes home. When the girls were children, their baby sister Holly was abducted and never found. Now it seems as if Holly may bear a grudge against her long-lost sisters. But why? And is she really the cause of all the scary incidents that have been happening to Alice and Tasha all these years later?

I enjoyed the story and the multiple points of view. It was fun to try to work out who was the villain in the story and what the motivation could be. The lengths several women go to in order to protect their families was an interesting theme and helped to tie up all the loose ends. Very enjoyable!

Thank you NetGalley and Harper Perennial Paperbacks for the eARC.
Wow, what a great psychological novel, I couldn't stop reading it, it was so tense and suspenseful.
The love of two sisters for each other, even though one feels not quite good enough compared to the other, plays out in a shocking murder and painful upheaval for the entire family. At the very end a decision is made that's shocking but totally understandable.
Claire Douglas does it again, I love her books and can't wait for the next one! Highly recommended!

The novel centers around two compelling mysteries: the tragedy of Holly, the family's missing baby daughter, and the murder of Alice's husband, Kyle. These mysteries kept me engaged as a reader.
A recurring theme throughout the story is the lengths people will go to for the ones they love and it was fascinating to see how some of the characters interpreted this sentiment.
The ending was great and unexpectedly surprising; there were numerous possible outcomes, and the direction it took was one I didn't anticipate. I truly appreciate when a book can deliver such a twist!
Thank you NetGalley and Harper Perennial and Paperbacks for the ARC review. Having read Claire Douglas's work before, I was eager to dive into this new one.

An intriguing read for thriller lovers. This was a quick read for those that like to be thrown around the block a few times before coming home. Great audio as well.

I have never read a book by Claire Douglas until this one. This book kept me up all night reading. I had no idea what was going to happen. It was a suspenseful thriller with some good twists. I for sure recommend this book.

3.75 I hate that goodreads can't do half and .75 stars. Hate this app 😂 and that we can't give them on net.

I overall enjoyed this one. This was my first Claire Douglas book. It wasn't shocking and twisty enough for me but it was a quick read.

I really didn't like the dodgy investors part, I thought that was just too expected.

I did have my suspicions about Alice, so by the ending I was not surprised. I also suspected Viv had something to do with it but didn't think she was the sister of Bonnie's mom.

Guessing things pretty much made me not enjoy it as much as I think I would have had I not guessed it.

Thank you #Netgalley for the advanced copy!

This thriller started with a slow simmer, building the character profiles, first with Tasha and her husband Aaron, then her sister Alice and husband Kyle. We learn about their dynamics, family history along with a family mystery of an abducted sister. When tragedy strikes in Tasha's home, the story strives to unsolve the mystery while intertwining additional characters and connections to the gamily. I did enjoy all the twists and turns, I look forward to reading more of this authors mysteries.

Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for this e-arc! This book was such a quick read, I became really engaged with the characters and kept wanting to see where the story was heading.

This book actually kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time. I didn’t trust anyone and I love that for me.

Thank you for the e-arc NetGalley.

I whipped right through this thriller. As a mom of twins I connected right away with the sister that is a mom of young children.

The sisters in this book come from a family that experienced an abduction of their third sister early in their lives.

Now in their 30s they decide to do a mini life swap for a week so that Tasha and her husband can reconnect while Alice and her new husband watch the twins. But of course that doesn’t go to plan.

Really enjoyed this one but did figure out the twist. The author left enough clues but I like that.

I loved this book! The being was a bit slow, but I eventually caught on to the cheaters and the timeline and did not want to put it down until I figured out what was going on and who did what! Such a great book and very well written!

Hey hey my favorites 😀💚 #annieethebookiee is back with another review, and I couldn’t wait to share my thoughts on The wrong sister! This book is a true gem that grabbed me from the start and kept me hooked until the very last page. The author’s writing style is so engaging, and the way they bring the characters and story to life is simply unforgettable.

The plot is full of surprises, and just when I thought I had everything figured out, I was hit with a twist that left me speechless. The themes are so well-crafted, and the emotional depth really resonated with me throughout the book. Whether it’s a heartwarming journey, a thrilling adventure, or a thought-provoking story, this book has it all.

If you're looking for a book that will keep you turning pages and thinking long after you finish, The Wrong sister is definitely one you don’t want to miss!

The Wrong Sister is a domestic thriller that follows twin sisters. It's very formulated in terms of the genre, but the writing excellent and the characters had depth to them. While it was predictable in some ways, I still enjoyed my time reading this. If you like twisty, thrillers that are quick to read you should pick this one up!

4.5/5⭐️
First - thank you to NetGalley & HarperCollins Publishers Inc. for providing me with an uncorrected e-proof of The Wrong Sister by Claire Douglas in exchange for an honest review.

NOW -

The Wrong Sister is about secrets, betrayal, tragedy & asks the question “How well do you really know your family?” After all, we’re all hiding something aren’t we?
And in this book - certainly EVERYONE is hiding something!
When Tasha & her husband do a “life swap” with her sister Alice & her husband Kyle, taking flight to their Venetian apartment, Tasha can’t wait to rekindle the spark in her lackluster marriage. But only a couple days into their romantic getaway, Tasha & her husband are called back home to the UK with news that after a break-in at their home, her sister is in hospital and Kyle, her sisters husband, is dead. And throughout the investigation, when the secrets begin to unravel, Tasha finds there’s much more to the people closest to her than meets the eye.
This book is a nicely paced thriller that keeps you guessing & questioning everyone! I felt the author dove into the mystery aspect relatively quickly, which I really like. But I did find there were a few “lulls” in the story where I felt I was waiting for something to happen. Despite that, I truly could not put this book down once it started going! It had me up late, formulating (INSANE) theories, and telling myself “one more chapter”! And trust me when I say, once the secrets started spilling, THEY. DIDNT. STOP!
A delightfully twisty & engaging thriller, with an ending you won’t see coming! Definitely check out The Wrong Sister by Claire Douglas!

THE WRONG SISTER is a super enjoyable read that I highly recommend for fans of thrillers and suspense novels. Family secrets abound, and there are just enough twists and turns. The multiple storylines leave you guessing and turning the pages. There are quite a few alternating POVS, which got on my nerves a little bit, but I do understand how Douglas was weaving all the storylines together. She does a great job of dropping hints, clues, and false starts. Just when you think you know who to trust, she pulls the rug out from under you. Fans of puzzle-like stories will find much to admire here.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an advance e-galley; all opinions in my review are 100% my own.

The Wrong Sister is your average domestic thriller. It makes for a good read when wasting time but nothing about it wowed me. The writing itself did an excellent job with world building and it was an easy suspenseful read. However I found the characters frustrating and overall found myself enjoying the book less because of that. Though not as gripping as some of Douglas’s other works, it’s still a decent choice for fans of thrillers looking for a light read.

Wow!! I am stunned and speechless with this phenomenal story!! So many twists and turns you will be left reeling..

A home invasion? A dead husband? A missing baby sister? I mean what else could you possibly ask for? Such a well woven tale of a family with lies and secrets. When the truth finally comes out in this story, (I only guessed it a few pages before it was revealed!) it was so satisfying. Such a clever twist that I did not see coming.
