THE SISTERS
Book ID/图书代码： 14780018C00031
English Summary/英文概要： A young woman must infiltrate the house of a secretive cult in Rosalind Noonan’s new novel featuring three sisters, two families and three unreliable points of view.
Eleven years ago, Glory abandoned her two daughters—five-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, Ruby 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.
Glory would take nine-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 life when she has so little power over her
own?
Chinese Summary/中文概要： Rosalind Noonan的新小说中讲述了三个姐妹、两个家庭和三种不可靠的观念——一个年轻女子必须渗透到一个神秘的邪教之家。
11年前，Glory为了一个承诺给予她爱和保护的男人，将她的两个女儿——五岁的Ruby和还是婴儿的Aurora——丢弃在了消防站。尽管那个男人最后还是欺骗了她，但她相信，两个女儿没有她会活得更好。之后，Glory又生了一个女儿，她非常渴望挣脱束缚开始新的生活。
十六岁的Ruby很爱她的养父母，但她并没有忘记Glory。现在她拿到了驾照，便开始寻找她的生母。她发现她们在一所收容被抛弃的女人的房子里，被称为“姐妹”，这栋房子里的人被一个很有魅力的霸凌者统治着，监视着她们的一举一动。
但凡有一丝机会，Glory一定会带着9岁的Luna逃跑。有些时候，女孩被限制在带栅栏的院子里活动；而有时，她会被送进满是灰尘的阁楼里作为惩罚。在Ruby与Glory接触时，她抓住了逃跑的机会。Ruby非常想帮忙，但是她到底是否应该帮助她几乎不认识的家人？当她甚至都无法掌控自己的人生时，她又怎么能改变别人的生活呢？(LYR)
