Praise for That Other Family:
“Lis Angus builds a powerful plot and unexpected confrontations between three siblings as events spiral into disasters, explosions, hired hit men, and alter egos. Filled with satisfying twists, clashing personalities, and shifting understanding as perspectives change, The Other Family is a heart stopping story of intrigue and action that juxtaposes nonstop confrontations with surprises many won’t see coming.”
D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
“Angus has written a nail biting cat-and-mouse crime thriller that has you suspecting everyone, trusting no one, and rooting for a woman desperately trying to protect her family from the sinister consequences of long buried secrets. You won’t put it down until you’ve made it through the heart pounding finale.”
Katie Tallo, International Bestselling author of Dark August (Gus Monet mystery trilogy)
“Taut and riveting from the first page, this is a domestic thriller with real emotional stakes. What begins as a shocking family revelation becomes a harrowing fight for survival. With its layered characters and relentless tension, That Other Family will hold you in its grip to the very end. This is a great second novel from author Lis Angus. Those who liked her first book, Not Your Child, will love That Other Family.”
Mike Martin, award-winning author of the Sgt. Windflower Mystery series
“From Lis Angus, author of the gripping and fast-paced debut, Not Your Child, comes her eagerly anticipated second novel. That Other Family is another page turner, a story of betrayal and buried secrets — and a mother who will risk everything to protect her family.”
J. Woollcott, Daphne du Maurier award-winning author of A Nice Place to Die and Blood Relations.
“Non-stop action and suspense make for a captivating read from beginning to end.”
Brenda Chapman, award-winning author of the the Hunter and Tate Mysteries
“Lis Angus provides a tale of secrets, betrayal, and sharply drawn characters that had me gasping at the final twist. A great, fast-paced mystery.”
Amy Tector, author of the Dominion Archives Mysteries
“Lis Angus weaves another thrilling tale of family deception that crosses borders, wrecks lives and calls to mind the question of what it truly means to be a family. That Other Family is tightly paced and intriguing until its exciting end!”
Michelle Hillen Klump, author of A Dash of Death and Murder Served Neat
