Book excerpt: I can't believe my own sister would come with this thievery and anarchy to my door.Tree and Ree Etienne are laying their mother to rest when an unwelcome arrival at the graveside intrudes on their grief. It's Bo, their troublesome estranged half-sister.To comfort her sisters Bo moves in for a while and things begin to look up. But cracks appear as childhood memories, deep resentments and long-put-away dreams come to the fore. Tensions build before erupting in a confrontation during which harsh truths are said. Will the sisters destroy all that is left of their family and each other?The Etienne Sisters by Ché Walker premiered at Theatre Royal Stratford East, London, in September 2015.
