About this listen
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.

Excellent short read
I really enjoyed this, Aofie's Irish accent is lovely, the story was a little too short, I would have loved more. I think 'The Ruin' will be my next listen.

A bit inconsequential and not much of a prequel
An OK novella featuring 2 sisters, one a young barrister, the other just starting in the Irish police, and they get tangled up in the same case.
But not very enlightening as a prequel to the Cormac Reilly series, Cormac does not feature at all.
Nevertheless I continue to be an avid reader of Dervla's.

Loved the Irish accent
l really enjoyed this book. I loved the Irish accent of the narrator so much so that it would have been good as a longer book.

A great story
I loved listening to The Sisters. A great light prelude to The Ruin. Aiofe McMahon's reading brings the characters to life.
Highly recommend adding the story to your library.
