What to expect

Single White Female meets the psychological suspense of Samantha Downing.

Beauty. Wealth. Success.
She's got it all.
And it all should've been mine.

When Eleanor Hardwicke's beloved father dies, her world is further shattered by the discovery of a gut-wrenching secret: the man she's grieving isn't her biological dad.

With her personal life spiraling, a desperate Eleanor seeks out the family she never knew she had, finding an infuriatingly enviable half-sister.

Perfectly perfect Victoria has everything Eleanor could ever dream of. Loving childhood, luxury home, devoted husband. And this gets Eleanor thinking - aren't good sisters supposed to share?

PRAISE FOR SISTER DEAR

'A stunning achievement! Beautifully plotted story with characters that left a mark'
Samantha Downing, author of #1 bestseller, My Lovely Wife

'Sister Dear drew me in, had me hooked and I was never really sure what to expect or who to trust. I thought it was dark, twisty, compelling and also heartbreaking. Unputdownable.
Karen Hamilton, bestselling author of The Perfect Girlfriend

'Loss, love, revenge, buried secrets and greed add up to make Sister Dear an electrifying read. If you think you know where this story is headed, watch out. Hannah Mary McKinnon has a few tricks up her sleeve. A must read!'
Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl and The Other Mrs

'A grieving daughter, a jealous sister - nothing is as it seems in Hannah Mary McKinnon's latest slow-burn suspense, Sister Dear. This one creeps up the back of your neck then explodes into an ending that I guarantee you won't soon forget. Smart, addictive, and genuinely surprising'
Kimberly Belle, bestselling author of The Marriage Lie and Dear Wife

Critics Review

  • SISTER DEAR is a sinister adventure into a labyrinth of family secrets and lies

    Amy Impellizzeri, award-winning author of Why We Lie

  • Sinister, simmering, cinematic - and absolutely riveting. The oh-so-talented Hannah Mary McKinnon skillfully and cleverly twists and turns this unstoppable story of envy and obsession - and powers it to a gasp-worthy conclusion. Wow - standing ovation!

    Hank Phillippi Ryan, bestselling author of The Murder List

  • SISTER DEAR is as unexpected as it is thought provoking. It's a story about the meaning of family, the corruption of wealth, and the needs inside us that sneak up and take over our lives. The twisty ending was well paved and clever, but also a testament to McKinnon's uncanny insight into family relationships. This is domestic noir that should be at the top of your list

    Wendy Walker, bestselling author of The Night Before

  • As layered as puff pastry, and just as delightful, SISTER DEAR is an altogether unpredictable and surprising read. What begins as a slow-burn exploration of love, loss and grief shifts about midway through into a dark and twisted tale of secrets and revenge. These are some of the most wicked characters I've read in a long time, where deception is the standard and nothing is as it seems. If you think you know what will happen, guess again, because the final outcome is so profoundly shocking, the twist so unexpected, I didn't see it coming. A wickedly dark and addictive read following themes of good and bad, and asking if good always triumphs

    Christina McDonald, bestselling author of The Night Olivia Fell

  • I love it when books convince you of the path, and you're so certain of how it's going to end . . . but I was completely wrong! And that was brilliant! You won't see it coming but it leaves you feeling satisfyingly on edge
