Eleanor Hardwicke's father recently passed away from an illness. But before he died, he revealed to Eleanor that another man is her biological father. Desperate to find friends and family that will show Eleanor the love she lacked with her narcissistic mother who openly favored her half-sister, Eleanor begins to do the unthinkable: to plan to make contact with her biological father and with her beautiful and perfect half-sister, Victoria. But when Eleanor eventually makes contact with Victoria, what will happen between the sisters? 

Having previously read two of Hannah Mary McKinnon's novels, THE NEIGHBORS and HER SECRET SON, and I thought I was prepared for SISTER DEAR. I am happy to say SISTER DEAR clearly surpassed the previous two books and nothing about the story was predictable. I also pride myself on figuring out the twists, but Hannah Mary McKinnon still remains a cipher, and her books are treasures among the domestic suspense/thriller crowd. Hannah Mary McKinnon is an author to watch.

I found myself hungrily devouring this ultimate tale of greed, lies, and deceit into the wee hours of the night (or morning), and when SISTER DEAR was over, I was devastated and am making an impassioned plea to Hannah Mary McKinnon to please write a sequel. 

For the readers who are seeking a thrilling, suspenseful tale that will make hearts race, SISTER DEAR  will be the best reading decision that one has made.
