Just an ordinary family / Fiona Lowe.

Thirty-three-year-old GP Libby Hunter has had, except for one tragic event, a charmed life. She's happily married to the wonderful Nick Pirelli, has two beautiful daughters, a lovely home and a successful medical practice in the small summer tourist mecca of Kurnai Bay. Alice Hunter is Libby's slightly-younger, completely-unexpected twin. Alice has always lived somewhat in Libby's shadow, having none of her charm, her self-assuredness, her single-minded determination or focus. And since she lost her job, her home and her boyfriend, she's back from Melbourne, living with her parents, doing menial casual work and feeling rather directionless. Karen Hunter has always tried to protect her twins, and to give them the unconditional love she was denied during her childhood. But now, as the bombshell hits, she watches as one of her daughters, painfully trying to find a way forward through her anguish, transforms into a controlling, vindictive creature she barely recognises.
