The story is about an orphaned Hispanic teenage girl and her two younger twin siblings who are forced to move in with their step-father. There is an undercurrent of fear and suspense that keeps the reader engaged until the end. Poignant, relevant and so important. Trigger warnings - abuse, abandonment, alcoholism, mild sexual content

Clever, cute and fun writing style.
