She expects to find Tess and give her the usual lecture, the bossy big sister scolding her flighty baby sister for taking off without letting anyone know her plans. Tess has always been a free spirit, an artist who takes risks, while conservative Bee couldn’t be more different. Bee is used to watching out for her wayward sibling and is fiercely protective of Tess (and has always been a little stern about her antics). But then Tess is found dead, apparently by her own hand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBee is certain that Tess didn’t commit suicide. Their family and the police accept the sad reality, but Bee feels sure that Tess has been murdered.  Single-minded in her search for a killer, Bee moves into Tess's apartment and throws herself headlong into her sister's life--and all its secrets. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThough her family and the police see a grieving sister in denial, unwilling to accept the facts, Bee uncovers the affair Tess was having with a married man and the pregnancy that resulted, and her difficultly with a stalker who may have crossed the line when Tess refused his advances. Tess was also participating in an experimental medical trial that might have gone very wrong.  As a determined Bee gives her statement to the lead investigator, her story reveals a predator who got away with murder--and an obsession that may cost Bee her own life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA thrilling story of fierce love between siblings, \u003ci\u003eSister\u003c\/i\u003e is a suspenseful and accomplished debut with a stunning twist.\u003c\/p\u003e\"Lupton enters the highly charged ring where the best psychological detective writers spar... Like Kate Atkinson, Patricia Highsmith and Ruth Rendell… Both tear-jerking and spine-tingling, SISTER provides an adrenaline rush that could cause a chill on the sunniest afternoon.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"You'll relish every twist and turn.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeople\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\"Eerie psychological mystery...With its loving portrayal of what it means to be a sister balanced by some impressively Hitchcockian twists, SISTER should appeal to fans of the character-driven mysteries of Kate Atkinson and Tana French.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003eCSMonitor.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"Elegantly suspenseful...a pulse-quickening cocktail of science fiction and whodunit, with a splash of literary poetics and poignancy.\"--NPR.org\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Gripping.” \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e—O, The Oprah Magazine\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\"A psychological murder mystery written with a literary flair…Be prepared for page-turning.”\u003ci\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003eVanity Fair.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e“[A] fast-paced, absurdly entertaining novel...\u003cb\u003e.\u003c\/b\u003eAlong with a juicy mystery, it resounds with an authentic sense of sisterly love and loyalty.” \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—The Boston Globe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"SISTER is an emotionally resonant and tightly drawn novel.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—The Post and Courier\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"Taut and tingling.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e—\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eGood Housekeeping\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A remarkable piece of work.
