The Sisters Chase

Sarah Healy

The hardscrabble Chase women - Mary Hannah and their mother Diane - have been eking out a living running a tiny seaside motel that has been in the family for generations inviting trouble into their lives for just as long. Eighteen-year-old Mary Chase is a force of nature: passionate beautiful and free-spirited. Her much younger sister Hannah whom Mary affectionately calls 'Bunny' is imaginative her head full of the stories of princesses and adventures that Mary tells to give her a safe emotional place in the middle of their troubled world.

But when Diane dies in a car accident Mary discovers the motel is worth less than the back taxes they owe. With few options Mary's finely tuned instincts for survival kick in. As the sisters begin a cross-country journey in search of a better life she will stop at nothing to protect Hannah. But Mary wants to protect herself too for the secrets she promised she would never tell - but now may be forced to reveal - hold the weight of unbearable loss. Vivid and suspenseful The Sisters Chase is a whirlwind page-turner about the extreme lengths one family will go to find - and hold onto - love.
