Margola whose bravery calls to her, must choose to stand firm in the face of terror or submit to a life of sadness and turmoil. These three and all the sisters between them will learn to love, to be loved, to be faithful or be wayward. They will come together, or they will fall apart. Nations await their choices. This is their story.
