Reviews
"A dreamlike modern fairy tale full of grief, longing, and murder, Forgotten Sisters is Cynthia Pelayo's best yet. Like the best hauntings, this one will linger in my head for a long time." -Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Road of Bones and The House of Last Resort "Aspects of Forgotten Sisters glide past each other like ghosts as Cynthia Pelayo adroitly juggles past and present, reality and the supernatural, in this elegiac gothic novel. You'll be haunted long after you've finished turning the pages." -Alma Katsu, author of The Fervor "A gritty murder mystery about a house that drips with haunted histories and a river that carries dark secrets and dead bodies in its current, Forgotten Sisters is a mesmerizing, propulsive read that doesn't just bend genre, it transcends it." -Rachel Harrison, national bestselling author of Cackle and Black Sheep "Personal, historical, and heart-deep. Forgotten Sisters captures the complicated sense of being stifled by home yet lost without it. From the eerie start to the unforgettable ending, Pelayo brings the chill of crime stories, grim fairy tales, and the gothic into a haunting mystery that will drag you into dark waters and never let go." -Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth and A Light Most Hateful "Forgotten Sisters is a haunting fairy tale, a haunted parable of loss and grief, a history of Chicago's tragedies, and a thrilling, page-turning, creepy who-done-it. Take me to the river...." -Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts and The Cabin at the End of the World
