Lucy Sexton is stunned when her mothers identical twin sister shows up at the familys front door one day. Separated at birth, the two women have had dramatically different upbringings, and Lucys mother, Aliese, will do anything to make it up to Helen-including taking Helen into their home and turning her into a lady that all of society will admire. Aunt Helens transformation is remarkable. But is it just Lucys imagination, or does Helen seem to enjoy being mistaken for Lucys mother? Then, on New Years Day, Lucy is horrified to find her aunt and mother tied to chairs in the parlor. One of them has been brutally murdered-but which twin has died? Surely her daughter will know...
Filled with shocking twists and turns, The Twins Daughter is an engrossing gothic novel of betrayals and secrets that will keep readers guessing until the end.
