Nine Nights on the Windy Tree
Martha Miller
Bertha Bannon is a struggling black lawyer looking after the grandmother who raised her. Life takes an odd twist when a woman seeks legal counsel for a murder not yet committed. Then the intended victim shows up dead in Bertha’s office. Things get stranger by the day: a fire threatens her grandmother’s house, and Bertha has the eerie feeling that someone is watching her. It makes Bertha want to drink again in the worst way. Life is further confused when the young cop on the beat, Toni Matilus, seems to be smitten by her. Bertha doesn’t know if she’s ready for romance with this single, white mom. Besides, she has bigger worries at the moment. Who is burning down the neighborhood? Who is the real Sally Morescki? And what family secrets are converging to the point of giving Bertha a really serious headache?
