书籍简介

“观看 [Kit] Frick 的两个故事碰撞和分歧非常有趣。”——《纽约时报书评》

这部由广受好评的作家 Kit Frick 创作的作品“讲述故事的壮举，两个故事相互竞争，最终得出令人满意且令人震惊的结局”（Riley Sager，《纽约时报》畅销书作家），讲述了一对姐妹陷入一个家庭的黑暗过去，阐明了一个选择如何彻底改变一个人的生活轨迹

姐妹 Jane 和 Esme 曾经亲密无间。但成年后，务实可靠的 Jane 为她们之间日益疏远而感到遗憾。因此，当美丽而冲动的 Esme 在夏日暴风雨中打电话给 Ja​​ne，宣布她离开了上流社会的丈夫时，Jane 震惊地得知她的妹妹希望和她在一起。这会是她们再次亲密起来的机会吗？问题是：埃斯梅需要搭车从市区回到她们位于康涅狄格州的小家乡，而简害怕上高速公路。暴风雨肆虐，简无法摆脱十几岁时在倾盆大雨中开车差点撞死埃斯梅的可怕记忆。

简须要么让埃斯梅独立站起来，要么忍住恐惧去救她妹妹——而她的选择将她的生活一分为二。

在一个现实中，简让埃斯梅和朋友住在一起。二十四小时后，她的妹妹失踪了。简被悔恨折磨着，致力于拼凑埃斯梅失踪前的生活，揭开谎言、破裂的关系，最后，真相大白。

在另一个现实中，简上车，提出载她那不太感激的妹妹一程。然而，虽然简希望住在他们童年的家里能治愈伤痛，但埃斯梅却很冷漠，而且越来越鲁莽。姐妹之间的紧张关系不断加剧，最终她们被迫面对过去的爆炸性秘密，这个秘密可能会摧毁她们脆弱的关系——以及她们的生活。

《分裂》以极快的节奏和令人震惊的曲折，引人入胜地探索了我们对所爱之人的了解有多么少——以及一个小小的选择如何改变一切。

"It's great fun to watch [Kit] Frick's two narratives collide and diverge." --The New York Times Book Review

From critically acclaimed author Kit Frick, this "storytelling feat, with twin narratives that race each other to a satisfying--and shocking--conclusion" (Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author), follows a pair of sisters into a family's dark past, illuminating how a single choice can drastically alter the trajectory of a life

Sisters Jane and Esme used to be thick as thieves. But as adults, pragmatic, dependable Jane regrets the distance that has grown between them. So when beautiful and impetuous Esme calls Jane during a flash summer storm, announcing she's left her high society husband, Jane is shocked to learn that her little sister wishes to stay with her. Could this be an opportunity for them to become close again? The only catch: Esme needs a ride from the city to their small Connecticut hometown, and Jane is terrified of getting on the highway. The storm is raging, and Jane can't escape the horrible memory of how she nearly killed Esme while driving in a downpour when they were teens.

Jane must either let Esme stand on her own two feet for once or swallow her fear and jump to her younger sister's rescue--and her choice cleaves her life in two.

In one reality, Jane tells Esme to crash with a friend. Twenty-four hours later, her sister is missing. Tortured by regret, Jane dedicates herself to piecing together Esme's life before her disappearance, unraveling a web of lies, broken relationships, and, finally, the truth.

In the other reality, Jane gets in the car and offers her less-than-grateful sister a ride. But while Jane hopes living together in their childhood home will be healing, Esme is aloof and increasingly reckless. The tension between the sisters builds until they are finally forced to reckon with the explosive secret from their past that could destroy their fragile bond--and both their lives.

With a breakneck pace and shocking twists and turns, The Split captivatingly explores how little we know the ones we love--and how one small choice can change everything.
