I flew through this lovely story about sisters!
How hard to be left at an orphanage at a young age, never to see your own mother again! Why did Dorothy and Esther's mom abandon them?

After the sisters age out of Blakeley Hall, they only have each other. But there is already the threat and then actual coming of war. I really liked how they took care of each other in different times of need. There are sad parts as lives are lost.

The end made me a bit sad as we find out why they were left in the first place.
