Sorcha Burke was on a cruise ship full of monsters. Sure, she was one of them. But on the scale of fucked up things that went bump in the night, she was barely a dull thump. She knew from the moment her little sister Sadie was brutally disciplined by the supernatural government that ruled their lives, the clock was ticking. Sorcha couldn't stay in Australia. Sorcha couldn't be like other banshees. Sorcha couldn't repress who she was any longer. She had to flee. Yet her journey to freedom was more dangerous than she could have anticipated. And there's more than one predator on Sorcha Burke's tail. From the Aurealis Award-winning author of The Witch Who Courted Death comes this short story set within the Supernatural Sisters universe and before the events of The Wailing Woman. The Otherworld Sister is available for free on the author's website. “Maria Lewis has created her own pop culture universe.” - The Daily Telegraph “Maria Lewis is a must-read.” - BuzzFeed “It’s world-building at its finest.” - The Nerd Daily “Maria Lewis is definitely one to watch.” – NY Times best-selling author Darynda Jones
