Emelia and Luzia dos Santos, orphaned when they are children, grow up under the protection of their aunt in a hillside village in Brazil.  Raised as seamstresses, the sisters learn how to cut, how to mend and how to conceal.  Emilia dreams of finding love in the bustle and glamour of the city, whereas Luzia, deformed by a childhood accident, knows that for her real life cannot be romantically embroidered.

But when Luzia is abducted by a gang of rebel bandits, the sisters' lives diverge in ways they never imagined.  And when a price is placed upon Luzia's head, Emilia realises she must risk everything in order to save her sister.  

Soft cover, good condition.
