Nine-year-old Merell knows what she saw in the pool that day. And her call to 911 immediately put her mother, Simone, under suspicion for an unforgivable crime. But as usual, Simone's older sister, Roxanne, has come to the rescue. In the glare of national media attention she tries to help her vulnerable niece make sense of the family's tragedy. And while striving to hold her own marriage together, she struggles with her always troublesome relationships with the beautiful Simone - who suffers from crippling postpartum depression - and their cold, narcissistic mother, Ellen. Unflinchingly honest and moving, THE GOOD SISTER is a novel of three generations of women seeking to overcome a legacy of violence, secrecy, and lies...as they discover just how far sisters, mothers, and daughters will go to hurt and help one another.
