The Sisters [large print] / Rosalind Noonan. Large Print edition. Thorndike, Maine : Center Point Large Print, 2019. 495 pages (large print) ; 23 cm. Twelve years ago, Glory abandoned her two daughters -- four-year-old Ruby and baby Aurora -- at a fire station, running off to a man who promised love and protection. Though the refuge she hoped for turned out to be a sham, she believes Ruby and Aurora are better off without her. But Glory has since given birth to another daughter, who's clamoring for a life beyond their close-knit, tightly controlled world. Sixteen-year-old Ruby loves her adoptive parents, but she hasn't forgotten Glory. Now that she has her driver's license, sets out in search of her birth mother. What she finds is a ramshackle house of castaway women, referred to as 'sisters,' ruled over by a charismatic bully who monitors their every move. lory would have taken ten-year-old Luna away in a heartbeat if they had somewhere to go. On good days, the girl is confined to the fenced-in yard: on bad days, she's sent to the dusty attic as punishment. When Ruby makes contact, Glory seizes on a chance for escape. Ruby is desperate to help, but how much does she owe to family she barely knows -- and how can she fix someone else's lif when she has so little power over her own? 20190325. Teenage girls Fiction.
