This book was amazing. Love the twists and turns. Couldn't put the book down
Would recommend this book to anyone who likes a gripping story

This book is mainly about Alexa and her sister, Carrie, who currently lives with Alexa and her family after her marriage fell apart. She has been accused of some terrible crimes at the hospital where she's a ward manager. It's made all the more chilling by the fact that Alexa has a baby daughter, Florence, who Carrie regularly cares for, and adores. At least, that's what Alexa and her husband, Perry, have always thought. Now with these accusations, they are unsure how to react, and keep their relationship with Carrie while also keeping their daughter safe.

That's pretty much it for the story, most of it is spent with Alexa fiercely denying that Carrie could have committed the crimes she accused of while more and more evidence makes Carrie seem guilty. And even when Florence is injured while being alone in Carrie's care, Alexa still won't change her mind. It's a bit repetitive, with a lot of internal dialogue by Alexa going back and forth about maybe actually starting to doubt Carrie and then instantly regretting even thinking of doing so. Frustrating to read, as any mother would surely put her child first above her sister, even just to be on the safe side!

It's hard to side with any of the characters, really, as Carrie doesn't help herself by acting more guilty by the day and constantly lying. Alexa is just a weak mess who constantly jeopardizes her child and defends her sister above all else. Perry seems to be the only logical one, but then a sub-plot is thrown in (unnecessarily, to me) that faults his character, as well. At least the mystery surrounding the accusations against Carrie remains until the very end, and many readers won't see the end result coming. It did keep my interest until the end, but I really wish there was more depth and likability to the characters so that I could have been more engaged in the story.

Alexa doesn't know what she would do without her sister Carrie who lives with Alexa, her husband Parrie and their one year old daughter Florence. Carrie provides much needed support with Florence and adores her. So when Carrie is suspended from work and arrested for a terrible crime, Alexa is shocked but doesn't believe her sister is guilty. However Alexa's husband doesn't trust Carrie and even suggests she could harm their daughter, causing tension between him and Alexa. Then when Florence is hurt while in Carrie's care, Alex begins to wonder if her sister really could be guilty of the crimes.... And could she reveal Alexa's secret...?

A brilliant, gripping thriller that keeps you reading and wondering until the end. The characters were fantastic. the plot tense and enthralling, and the twists and turns made the book just brilliant. I can't recommend this book enough, another amazing book from K. L. Slater.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of the book in return for my honest feedback.

An excellent domestic thriller! The characters were well drawn and the storyline flowed seamlessly. The mystery kept me guessing until the very end. Highly recommended!

K.L. Slater’s books are always highly readable - good escapism at a time when escapism is sorely needed.

New mother Alexa is very dependent on her elder sister Carrie, particularly as her husband (Alexa’s) works away on an oil rig for weeks at a time. Alexa clearly suffers from anxiety, finding it hard to even go out at all without Carrie’s support.

Carrie works as a ward manager in A&E, and when a whistleblower flags up suspicious deaths on the ward - including a six month old baby - finds herself suspect number one. Alexa can’t believe her sister could be guilty, and yet... can she really trust her with her own baby, Florence?

A quick and enjoyable read. The twist came a bit out of the blue and I’m not entirely sure how it fits in with some of the earlier narrative towards the beginning of the book. I certainly didn’t anticipate it, anyway.

I’m not sure I understand the title though. Which girl? Who is “she”?

Loved this , as usual . You know what your getting with a K L Slater and i really wasn't disappointed . Alexa is mum to young baby Florence , her sister Carrie is staying with them after her marriage breakdown much to the annoyance of Alexa's husband Perry . When Carrie is suspended and arrested after a couple of unexplained deaths on her ward and Florence is injured whilst in her care Alexa really starts to doubt Carrie , with the police and social workers involved the future looks bleak for Carrie , but of course that would be too straight forward . Some good twists and turns and as usual an excellent , fast paced , packed read . 5 stars from me

Another excellent psychological thriller by one of my favourite authors KL Slater. Great characters, addictive plot, suspense and lots of twists and turns.
Carrie is a senior nurse and is suspended from her job when she is accused of a terrible crime. Carrie lives with her younger sister Alexa and family following the break up of her own relationship. Carrie loves her one-year-old niece Florence and Alexa who has always looked up to her sister knows how caring Carrie is to her daughter, feeling safe with her around. Alexa's husband doesn’t trust Carrie and wants her to leave the family home fearing that Carrie would harm his daughter. This is something Alexa cannot accept and will never let anybody come between her and her sister. This all changes when Florence is hurt while in Carrie’s care and Alexa at last starts to wonder.
I would like to thank both Netgalley and Bookouture for supplying a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

My jaw was dropped.
Sister love is the most precious thing in the world for another sister, isn't it? A sister can protect you, love you, care for you, want your baby?
Alexa loved Carrie doesn't matter anyone in the world say anything about her. She's her previous sister. She would never hurt her or so she thought.
Florence, another beautiful character of a baby girl who's cooing whenever Carrie is around.
Both sisters had a secret. And now that secret will tore their family apart.
