The Muscolinos have raised three proud and passionate daughters. But as the girls come of age in a rapidly changing world, their paths diverge—in drastic and devastating ways—from their parents’ deeply traditional values. Despite their fierce love, each young woman harbors a secret longing that, if revealed, could tear the family apart. When a plane crashes into their neighborhood and life comes to a screeching halt, the Muscolino sisters are forced to confront their conflicting desires in this gripping, provocative portrait of love in all its danger and beauty.
