The Night Sister
by Jennifer McMahon
From Goodreads
Once the thriving attraction of rural Vermont, the Tower Motel now stands in disrepair, alive only in the memories of Amy, Piper, and Piper's kid sister, Margot. The three played there as girls until the day that their games uncovered something dark and twisted in the motel's past, something that ruined their friendship forever.
Now adult, Piper and Margot have tried to forget what they found that fateful summer, but their lives are upended when Piper receives a panicked midnight call from Margot, with news of a horrific crime for which Amy stands accused. Suddenly, Margot and Piper are forced to relive the time that they found the suitcase that once belonged to Silvie Slater, the aunt that Amy claimed had run away to Hollywood to live out her dream of becoming Hitchcock's next blonde bombshell leading lady. As Margot and Piper investigate, a cleverly woven plot unfolds—revealing the story of Sylvie and Rose, two other sisters who lived at the motel during its 1950s heyday. Each believed the other to be something truly monstrous, but only one carries the secret that would haunt the generations to come.

My Review
I gave this book a 5 Star Rating
The Night Sister was a wonderful mystery/thriller. It was written with the same Characters through out the book. We also get to read about 4 different time era's that jump back and fourth from 1955, 1961, 1989 and the year 2013.
Everyone of us carries around family secretes but none like we find in The Night Sister. Pick up this book read it and you will find that you will enjoy the wonderful writing by Jennifer McMahon.
