Publisher's Summary
Two sisters climbing the ranks of Dublin’s criminal justice system. A murder case that could change their lives forever. The Sisters is a gripping new thriller from one of the most exciting voices in crime fiction.
In this prequel to the international best seller The Ruin, set 10 years prior, bright-eyed Carrie Ryan is at the very start of her career. When she has a hunch about an ongoing murder investigation, she knows it could be her only chance to prove herself and truly break into the “boys' club” of Dublin’s police force.
Carrie uncovers this make-or-break moment in a case file that her sister Aifric, a newly qualified barrister, leaves on their kitchen counter: Robert Collins has been charged with the murder of his girlfriend after a fight in a local pub. All signs point toward a guilty verdict, but both sisters quickly begin to find evidence that complicates the story. All the while, Carrie is very aware that she’s crossed the line—if the detective sergeant running the investigation finds out she’s been messing around with his case, her career will be over before it has begun. Aoife McMahon lends her authentic accent and her knowledge of the series’ characters, delivering a powerful performance that heightens the drama with every twist and turn.
Please note: This audio contains strong language, distressing situations, and descriptions of violence that some listeners may find upsetting. Discretion is advised.

surprisingly entertaining
Because it is short, billed as a oreq6and contains violence and disturbing scenes warnings, I expected to find this challenging to enjoy. I chose it by way of introduction to the author and the series. Quite happy I did. It contains none of the warned sensitive content so not sure what that was about, but it is an engaging listen with excellent character development and pretty solid plotting. will definitely proceed to the next in the series and now suspect this author could bec6a stable for me.

nail biter
Thoroughly enjoyed I can't say enough about Dervla McTiernan's skill in weaving you into her stories. Do read you won't be disappointed. It's hard to be a woman in the good ole boy's clubs but in Ireland, I'd say doubly having lived there not really in the 21st century with women yet. Good solid read.

Good simple story with just enough twists to keep it interesting. Have read the next book Ruins so chose this one to get the prequel.
