She is a strong, intelligent and independent young woman who is determined to uncover the truth about her family's past. Lila, on the other hand, is more timid and submissive, and often relies on her sister for guidance and support.As the story unfolds, the sisters discover that their family's fortune was built on the suffering of others and that their uncle has been involved in some shady dealings. They also learn about a long-lost relative who holds the key to their family's redemption. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including a handsome young man who captures Casella's heart.Casella: Or The Children Of The Valleys is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption.
