Gr. 9^-adult. Inspired by the story of the Mirabal sisters, who were murdered in 1960 for their part in a plot to overthrow Trujillo in the Dominican Republic, this compelling novel recreates the story of the girls as they grow into women amid the horrors (rape, murder, torture) they watched and endured.
