The Lucky Sisters





The Australian blockbuster of the year - read it before someone spoils the ending!
A moving and heartfelt story about life, death and the miracles in between by the award-winning author of The Patterson Girls.

What would you do if you thought each day on earth might just be your last?
Lucky by name. Not so lucky by nature.

Adopted twins Nora and Stevie Lucky have always been close, despite being total opposites.
When their mother dies, Nora convinces Stevie to search for their biological parents, only to come face-to-face with a life-changing revelation that sends them spiralling in opposite directions.

With their careers, love lives and even their sisterly bond at risk, they’re going to need more than luck to survive.

Johns' trademark warmth and knack for crafting lovable, true-to-life characters make this a good choice for anyone who enjoyed Liane Moriarty's Here One Moment, Kerryn Mayne's Joy Moody Is Out of Time, or those drawn to stories that reflect on the fragility of life and the enduring strength of family.
