Who do you call a criminal? It can’t be Martha and Emily. They help the criminals, but does that make them crooks as well? The Sisters are just trying to make a living. They will bring illicit materials to mob bosses. They will copyedit notes announcing that this is a bank robbery. They will teach others how to distribute counterfeit money. They will also drug and transport people. They will not do terrible things to them, just transport them. Does that make them bad? In these stories, Emily and Matha will try to get by in this crazy world we find ourselves in. ’
