She thought she’d left her past behind.
She was wrong…

Henry Lincoln is a serial killer. He murders women on his sister's birthday. Why? There is one more important date for this criminal. Will his sister explain why? What happened then? Will Anna, the killer's sister, know the truth, and will she share this information with the police? Anna receives a mysterious envelope with the text: "Each one has been different but part of a whole. Each one I take is a window to your soul. Each one tells a story but hides within it a clue. Each one has been bringing me closer to you. Middle for diddle, that's your lot. Choose wisely, now off you trot." I was horrified. We go back in time and end up in the Finley Hall children's home. Here we meet Anna and Henryk, and a certain other girl. She pushed Anna away from her brother. Why? Returning to the present day, we meet Detective Inspector Walker. He was in charge of the murders of Anna's brother. He was very useful. Ross is the husband of our main character. I didn't like this character. He irritated me terribly. Anna has little time as there are four days left until her brother's next attack. Will he hunt her this time? Let me tell you that "The Serial Killer's Sister" shook me a lot. Especially the ending was very scary. There were a lot of twists and turns throughout the book that I wasn't expecting. It was my first encounter with the work of Alice Hunter. Now I know I need to read her other books. If you're looking for a good psychological thriller, you've come to the right place. You won't have time to be bored. And the final shock will stay with you for a long time.
