Answer

Your sister-in-law could be:

the sister of your spouse
    the wife of your brother
    the wife of your spouse’s brother. (note that this relationship is not recognized in the U.S. by some authorities.

Some people might call your spouse's brother's sister an 'in-law' in general, but actually, there is relationship defined by law or custom.
