Sister by Rosamund Lupton


The sisters in this story are Tess and Bee. Tess, the younger, is a free-spirited artist living in London. Bee is much more conservative. She left London and is living in the U.S. with her fiance. When their mother calls Bee to alert her that Tess is missing, Bee immediately returns home to look for her sister. When Tess's body is found the police say it is suicide. She had drugs in her and she had given birth to a baby who died. Tess had planned to be in London for the birth of the baby who wasn't due for another three weeks. Tess refuses to accept this pronouncement of suicide and begins her own investigation. One thing I really liked about the book is the way it is written. It is told in the voice of Bee speaking directly to her dead sister. I enjoyed it.
