6.9.2020 - The Half Sister

The Half Sister by Sandie Jones

Many thanks to NetGalley, Minotaur Books, and Sandie Jones for the opportunity to read and review her latest novel.  While her first two novels were both 5 star reads for me, I'm going with 4 stars for this one - still a good read but not quite as enthralling as those!

Sisters Lauren and Kate go to their mom's house without fail every week, bringing along their families.  But since their dad died, tensions between the sisters are high.  Lauren and her mom have always been close while Kate was closest to their dad.  During one dinner, a young woman comes knocking at the door saying she is their half sister, based on a DNA test she took.  While Lauren believes her, Kate is appalled at the thought of her dad having an affair.  But everyone is keeping secrets and those secrets are set to destroy their lives.

I loved the short chapters with the sisters' points of view and the plot line with the popular DNA testing was interesting - who knows what skeletons will turn up!
