Sin - Hardcover
Ruth smiles, but beneath the surface nurses a hatred as powerful as the sea, and as sharp as the coldest of blades. The object of Ruth's malevolence is her cousin, Elizabeth -- orphaned at nine months and raised by Ruth's parents as their own -- whose very presence stole Ruth's birthright as only child. From this twisted sense of betrayal grows an envy, dark as night, from which there can be but one refuge: Elizabeth's destruction.

From AudioFile:
This novel recounts the lives of Elizabeth Ashbridge and her sister Ruth and the unspoken sibling rivalry between them, which continues into adulthood. Veteran actress Diana Rigg portrays Ruth as sinister and Elizabeth as "perfect," an interesting juxtaposition to the plot, which revolves around family relationships and lusting after husbands. Creating whole personalities, Rigg brings out the underlying evil in Ruth and the basic nŠivetŽ in Elizabeth. Rigg's narration captivates the listener with a smooth performance through the excellent abridgment. M.B.K. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
