My Sister's Shadow

My Sister's Shadow

Jake thought he had left the ghosts of his past behind, but the death of his father drags him back into the heart of a family fractured by secrets, loss, and betrayal. Once a bright and loving home, their sprawling estate now feels like a labyrinth of grief, where the memory of Lucy, Jake's adopted sister who vanished without a trace, haunts every corner. As Jake reconnects with his estranged family, he begins to uncover the tangled web of lies and resentment that shaped his childhood. His mother's obsession with appearances, his father's unravelling mind, and the mysterious figures who once orbited their lives all seem to point to the same dark truth: Lucy. When strange visions of her begin to creep into his waking life, Jake is forced to question his own sanity. Is Lucy calling out for justice - or pulling him into the same despair that consumed his father? In this psychological thriller, family loyalty collides with buried truths, and the cost of uncovering them might be more than Jake can bear. As time runs out, Jake must face a terrifying question: Is the past ever truly gone, or does it grow stronger the longer it stays hidden?
