Nicci French 🇫🇷 via Ford Madox Ford. Sister is so ably done ⌛️, so perceptive about grief and ➕ guilt and ➕ self-delusion John OConnell, Guardian
With Sister, Lupton enters ➡️🚪 the highly charged ring 💍 where the best psychological detective 🕵️♂️ writers spar, her 👤👩⬅️ hands ✋ raised 🤚 in a victory ✌️ clench . . . Like Kate Atkinson, Patricia Highsmith and ➕ Ruth Rendell, Lupton builds suspense not ❌️ only around the causes and ➕ details of her 👤👩⬅️ storys brutal denouement, but also around the personalities 🧑 . . . Both tear 😂-jerking and ➕ spine-tingling New 🆕 York Times
⏱️Luptons crisp insights into grief and ➕ familial 👨👩👦 guilt are married ➡️💍 to a confidently executed plot. Luptons persuasive narrative voice is what keeps this classy debut (on track) Emma Hagestadt, Independent
