A great page turner which kept me guessing right to the end
Highly recommended !

Thankyou NetGalley for an ARC in return for an honest review

Wow this book was incredible! I am a fan of Claire Douglas and her style of writing and this book did not disappoint. The storyline and characters were fab and I could not put this book down.

Thank you to Claire Douglas and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Quite a complex character narrative, with a dark storyline. I liked how fast paced the book was, and I enjoyed the twists. A book I would definitely recommend.

“The Wrong Sister” by author Claire Douglas is a very good psychological thriller that is fast paced and delves into the dark secrets and complexities of sisterhood. Tasha has always felt overshadowed by her older sister, Alice and their contrasting lifestyles set the scene for a gripping story. Alice is married to Kyle, a wealthy entrepreneur and leads a glamorous life with a successful career. Tasha on the other hand is married to her childhood love and faces the day to day challenges of suburban life while bringing up their four-year-old twins. Living completely different lifestyles Alice feeling sorry for her sister suggests swapping places for a week, so Alice and Kyle move into Tasha’s modest terraced house, and Tasha and Harry escape to Alice and Kyle’s luxurious apartment in Venice.

While enjoying the luxurious lifestyle in Venice Tasha receives a shocking phone call informing her that Alice is in the hospital, and Kyle is dead. They appear to be the victims of a burglary gone wrong. This devastating news is followed by the receipt of a note saying, “It was supposed to be you,”.

This is a definite page turner and the tension is turned up to maximum as Tasha realises the possibility that she, not Alice, was the intended target. The questions start to build up, who was in the house that night and why would Tasha be targeted.

An intriguing plot that is well written and very compelling, making it a must read for readers of mystery thrillers.

I would like to thank both Netgalley and Penguin UK for supplying a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

This book was so good!! I couldn't put it down and lost track of time whilst reading it! There's twists in here that you just wouldn't expect and I love that in a book!

Well written with some genuinely shocking parts.

The plot is well done with many twists and turns but is easy to read and follow which I always feel is the sign of a great writer.

Easy read that will satisfy.

Two sisters that look alike but in reality are very different and live entirely different life's.
One of them is murdered but what if the killer got the wrong one ?
A cracking thriller with more than a few twists along the way that will reel you in and keep you hooked until the end

Not my favourite Claire Douglas novel but still a goodie! Lots of tension, well-paced and a few good twists.

Wow! Talk about tense and fast paced! Claire Douglas is an auto read author for me and The Wrong Sister delivered in every way possible.

I loved the originality of the storyline. Tasha and Aaron are offered a luxury Venetian apartment by Tasha’s wealth sister Alice. Worn out from the grind of daily life and raisin their children, plus issues in their relationship, both jump at the chance to get away.

While away, Tasha gets a call to say theres been tragic break in to their home and Kyle, Alices husband has been killed. Racing back home Tasha finds a note that says “It was meant to be you.” …

Another brilliant and addictive psychological thriller that you won’t be able to put down!

Many thanks to Michael Joseph, Penguin Random House for an early e-arc — I loved it!

I love Claire Douglas' novels and am so happy to day that this new one was no exception! This novel follows two sisters who did have a younger sister but she was abducted as a baby and has never been found. In the present day Tasha and her husband leave their two children with her sister Alice and go off to Venice for a few days. While away someone breaks into their home and kills Alice's husband and leaves Alice badly hurt. We then follow the aftermath as everyone tries to come to terms with it all whilst trying to figure out who could have done this. There are red herrings along the way, which I loved. I did figure out whodunnit for one part of the story but there was still a reveal that I didn't see coming so it still shocked me. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it!

Tasha and Alice are sisters with very different lives. When Alice stays at Tasha’s and looks after her children the unimaginable happens……then add drama, lose ends, shady characters…..family secrets…..well written gripping with twists and turns and characters I could visualise. An easy great read

The Wrong Sister by Claire Douglas is a story about sisters and family. Tasha has always been in the shadow of her older sister, Alice who went to Oxford and has a high flying career and married to wealthy entrepreneur Kyle. Tasha has left school without any exams and married her childhood sweetheart and they have four year old twin girls and still live in the same suburb in Bristol they have always lived in.
Their mother lives in France, after the death of her husband but even now still grieves for the loss of her third daughter, Holly who was snatched from her pram, when she was only a baby and never seen again.
Alice suggests that Tasha and Aaron go to stay in their Venice apartment for a week and they will stay in their home and look after the twins and they can celebrate their wedding anniversary in another country. On the night of their anniversary and taking a wrong turn, Aaron and Tasha are approached by a man wielding a knife at them, they run away and get back to the apartment unharmed. Later that night they are told that Kyle is dead and Alice is in hospital having been attacked at Tasha and Aaron’s family home.
There are many twists and turns in the storyline and somehow Holly is involved in the plot and reunites with the three remaining female members of the family.
Another psychological thriller by the author with so many twists and unexpected turns, that the reader is enthralled by the storyline.
Highly recommended

Tasha has always felt in the shadow of her older sister, Alice. Their lifestyles couldn't be more different: Alice is married to wealthy entrepreneur Kyle and has a high flying career, Tasha is married to her childhood sweetheart and lives in a suburb of Bristol with their 4 year old twins.

When Alice realises that Taste is struggling - with money, the kids and just generally feeling as though she is losing her identity - she suggests they do a life swap for a week. Alice and Kyle will come to stay at Tasha's terraced house to look after the twins, while Tasha and Harry spend the week in Alice and Kyle's lavish Venice apartment.

But a few days in, it all goes terribly wrong. Tasha receives a phone call to say Alice is in hospital and Kyle is dead after an intruder broke into their house. They think it must have been a burglary gone wrong.

Until a note arrives though the letterbox saying "It was supposed to be you"

Who was there that night and why?
Is it really Tasha that was being targeted?
Can the two sisters find the answers they need, or are they about to stumble upon something more sinister?

Another gripping psychological thriller by Claire Douglas! The Wrong Sister is a true page-turner that had me hooked from the very beginning.

The story was well paced and I found myself completely engrossed trying to piece together the puzzle of what happened. Around the 80% mark, I was convinced I had unravelled the mystery, only to discover that I had been led astray by cleverly placed red herrings! It's a testament to Claire Douglas's skill as a storyteller that she can keep readers guessing until the very end.

There's quite a few characters involved in the story but it never becomes confusing. I did find myself scrutinising each character and suspecting everyone at one point or another. This added to the tension and keep me fully invested in the drama.

I did find some of the plot twists were slightly implausible but I don't mind that so much when I'm reading a thriller. These twists and turns are essential for making a story memorable and unique, and when some characters behaved questionably, it only heightened my suspicions of everyone.

In conclusion, The Wrong Sister is an engrossing read that delivers plenty of twists, turns and suspense. If you're a fan of psychological thrillers that keep you guessing until the very end, then this is definitely a book worth adding to your reading list.

A slow start but picked up towards the middle and finished with a twist I didn’t see coming! An easy read.

This was my first Claire Douglas book and i really enjoyed it. The plot and the twists had me hooked and i really enjoyed the writing style! I will definitely be reading more of her books it was such a good read and fast paced!

An interesting idea and an easy read, but I didn’t find it as gripping as Claire Douglas’ other books - although I can’t quite put my finger on why!

A good summer read with the usual plot twists to keep the reader engaged

Brilliant book and very well written. I have read everything by this author and love her writing style. Her stories are so absorbing and so easy to read. I look forward to the next one !

Another good read from Claire Douglas. This kept you guessing until the end, even if somethings were a little predictable there were still twists and turns you didn't see coming.
It was definitely an entertaining read, highly recommend.

You agree to babysit your sister's children, thinking it will be a nice way to spend a few days with them while your sister and her husband have a break. But then, your brother in law is dead, your sister hysterical and a note appears to say whoever did this, attacked the wrong sister.. As Alice lies in intensive care, Tasha cannot think of anyone who would want to do this to her. She has to find out the truth and that means putting herself in great danger.....a rollercoaster of a read. Perfect summer holiday book!
