It takes me a while to come upon the central theme of Winter Sisters by Robin Oliveira because this book is the not the mystery you may assume from the fact that it begins with a disappearance. I have a definite "a-ha" moment. What draws the entire book together is the women - young and old â who are all made to suffer by a society in which women do not have the same position or rights as men. The plot centers around the disappearance of two young girls in a time and place when the age of consent by law was 10! (Note that the subject matter of the book is disturbing!) However, the focal point of the book is not a mystery; it is the bigger themes of rights and equality in a story that draws me in and keeps me reading until the very last page.
