In this book, the awfully tragic life of three girls is compounded by an abusive foster parent situation. How often does this happen? How do these children survive? Or do they?
There are 3 heroines in Darling Girls. Each of them enters into the foster care of Miss Fairchild living in an idyllic farmhouse known as Wild Meadows. They can't wait to escape the clutches of their overbearing foster mother. They devise a plan, and it appears to work, until no one believes them about their other sister. Were they making it up?
