Fifty Fifty by Steve Cavanagh
4.5

I’m a sucker for a good police/law procedural novel, even if it’s not entirely realistic. In this story, two sisters are on trial for the 🔪 of their father. They were both at the scene. They were both covered in his blood. They both left trace evidence on the body. They both called 911 and accused the other sister. Who is telling the truth?

I’m usually pretty good at figuring out the twist and the final reveal in these books, but this one kept me guessing the whole time. There was a fifty-fifty shot that the jury, and the reader, would identify the guilty sister. 

Thanks to NetGalley and Atria Books for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
