You didn't order it. You didn't get a bill with it. Your sister got the same book. Sounds like someone sent you a gift. Hold it under water for at least 5 min in case it explodes.
 Worst case, they send you a bill. You tell them to go pound sand and offer to return their book for your nominal fee for book returning of $100. Best case, someone who knows both you and your sister wishes you a Merry Christmas and asks how you liked the book.

Private DNS registration. But the link at the bottom leads to these folks:
About WhiteOakBooks They don't exactly seem like criminal masterminds.

I'd call the company, don't say anything right away about the book, just feel them out to see if it really is the mom&pop that it looks to be. If so, then call back later and tell them you got the book and you think it was sent mistakenly.
If they change tune and try to scam you, tell them where to shove it and forget about it. If a bill gets sent, ignore it. But I'm betting you have some old senile aunt that decided to send you and your sister a gift. And it's just a dumb gift.

I recently received a religious book in the mail. Someone must know I'm a heathen.

If I am not mistaken, you don't have to pay for unsolicited merchandise and you can keep it.
