The Sisters of Book Row by Shelley Noble is about the three Applebaum sisters who run a rare bookshop on Manhattan's famous Book Row in 1915, fighting censorship from moral crusader Anthony Comstock by secretly distributing banned women's health information hidden in books, while also dealing with family secrets, danger, and a mysterious stranger, all while protecting the freedom to read. The story follows Olivia (manuscript restorer), Daphne (retail), and Celia (the youngest, involved in the secret distribution) as they navigate threats to their shop and the written word itself.
