# The Sister-in-Law - Paperback

by **Joanne Ryan** (Author)

The BRAND NEW psychological thriller from Joanne Ryan Would you invite a stranger in?

When **Megan** loses her beloved husband, **Rick**, in a tragic car accident, she feels like it's her own life that has ended. She feels too young to be a widow. Walking around the house that had been their home - so quiet without him - nothing feels the same.

But at his funeral, she sees a face she doesn't recognise. A heavily-pregnant young woman, with a sweet heart-shaped face that is somehow a little familiar. This stranger introduces herself as **Emily**, Rick's estranged sister. She explains how she's been searching for her brother for years, but - as she bursts into noisy sobs - she knows she's too late now.

Megan finds herself taking pity on the sister-in-law she'd never met. And quickly Emily becomes more and more a part of her life, even moving into the spare room of her house.

It feels less empty than before. And at first it's comforting to Megan. But - even when it's a relative of the man you loved more than anyone - can you trust a stranger?

**A totally unputdownable psychological crime thriller, guaranteed to have readers up all night turning the pages! Perfect for fans of Frieda McFadden, Daniel Hurst and Lisa Jewell.**
