Chapter 10

Patria narrates chapter ten. This takes place between January and March, 1960. SPatricia is living at her mothers house, which is always being watched by the government (spefically Captain Victor Alicinio Pena). Also, Margarita Mirabal (Patria's sort-of half-sister) visits with a message from MarĂ­a Teresa, who is in prison. Margarita's cousin is a guard in the prison, and the family sends the prisoners items through him. Trujillo allows Nelson to be released, but he only does it to gain favorable publicity, not because he is a good person.
