Title: My Twin The Murderer
Author: Lindsay Kent
Entrant: Lindsay Kent
Description
Neuroscientist Evelyn Malcolm is this close to curing Alzheimer’s when she’s arrested—alongside her twin, Vivian, a troubled writer and addict—for the murder of Ben O’Neill, Evelyn’s secret lover and Vivian’s former mark. Their DNA ties them to the scene, and Evelyn, long used to cleaning up her sister’s messes, is sure Vivian’s guilty.
Things spiral when the sisters are abducted from the precinct by a madman brewing black-market psychedelics—but the attack is no random act. After escaping, they turn to Vivian’s underground ties for answers, only to uncover a chilling truth: Ben and their father were part of a CIA mind control program, and now a former test subject—turned drug queenpin—is using Evelyn’s corrupted formula to unleash chaos on the city.
To stop her and clear their names, the twins must navigate a hallucinogenic underworld and unravel the secrets of their past. But their fragile bond fractures under the weight of guilt, betrayal, and buried trauma. Evelyn has always feared Vivian’s recklessness—but now she wonders if the real danger isn’t her sister… but something inside herself.
