Ciudad Juárez, México, queda en la frontera sur del Río Bravo, frente a El Paso, Texas. Por más de doce años, aquí se ha llevado a cabo un sinnúmero de crímenes atroces contra mujeres y niñas que incluyen secuestros, violaciones, mutilaciones y asesinatos. Según Amnistía Internacional, para 2006, se habían encontrado más de 400 cadáveres, sin contar centenares de desaparecidas. Muchos creen que las muertes se deben a la violencia e impunidad que imperan en la ciudad. Entre las teorías que se proponen están uno o varios asesinos en serie, los sacrificios en rituales satánicos, el poderoso cartel del narcotráfico de Juárez y hasta corruptos funcionarios mexicanos que encubren a los responsables. Las hijas de Juárez promete ser una reveladora obra literaria que revela no sólo la brutalidad tras estos sangrientos hechos, sino las violaciones de los derechos humanos de la mujer en México.

Teresa Rodriguez met an Australian surfer in San Francisco; within months of this chance romantic encounter, she packed up her meager belongings and hopped on a plane to Australia-as a married woman. While things didn't work out with the man, she did fall head over heels with the Land Down Under ... and with traveling. During her difficult separation, Teresa took to the friendly skies to find some solace, inner peace, and time alone. She spent weeks traveling alone and returned to Australia single and broke, but not broken. The new confidence she gained from traveling shined; once back in Australia, she was signed by a modeling agent and worked on the popular game show, Blind Date.
