The Twin is the latest release from author Amanda Brookfield to be released via Boldwood Books.

A splintered childhood.
A family divided.
An ugly past resurfaces…

From birth, twins Cath and Rob are inseparable. When their mother dies, their bond deepens as their father hastily remarries a woman with a volatile temper whose sole focus is her own baby – Oliver – who arrives nine months later.

When, aged 47, Rob tragically dies, Cath’s world begins to crumble. Her grief compounded further by Oliver’s out-of-the-blue decision to attend Rob’s funeral, opening old wounds after three decades of estrangement.

Thrown together, the half-siblings are forced to confront a past that sends shockwaves through both their lives due to the huge discrepancies in their respective recollections. But could both their versions of the truth be correct…?

The Twin is a quietly gripping novel that gets under your skin and stays there. It’s an absorbing novel that delivers a clear-eyed look at fractured families and long-held resentments.

It’s a masterclass on how families mess each other up, usually without meaning to. Cath and Oliver’s dynamic is sharp-edged and uncomfortable in the best ways. Their interactions stay just this side of confrontational, which gives the book its tension and make it an absolutely riveting read.
