Ruth P. Watson's Blackberry Days!

Ruth P. Watson & Blackberry Days of Summer Ruth P. Watson & Blackberry Days of Summer
Blackberry Days of Summer!
 
Beautiful Blackberries in thick clusters, shiny and wet and bursting with tiny pockets of juice, and when you put them in your mouth  you taste their bitter sweetness in your mouth....bringing memories of the sweetness of summer...the bitterness of stories that become known! 
 
Such as Ruth P. Watson's Novel, Blackberry Days of Summer!" The novel begins as “The Great War” is coming to an end. As Robert Parker’s body is lowered into the grave, Herman Camm introduces himself to the mourning family. He is a beady-eyed, small-framed, well-dressed man with a mysterious stare—and he is about to drastically change the lives of three women: Mae Lou Parker; her daughter, Carrie; and Pearl Brown.
 
In Jefferson County, Virginia, trouble arrives when Carrie reveals a disturbing secret that will haunt and change their lives forever. Mae Lou is fed up with Herman spending time with other women and she goes to confront him.
 
Everybody wants a part of him, including Willie; however, the tables are slightly turned when Willie ends up with a gun pointing directly at him. All of the stories converge when Herman is found dead from a shotgun wound.  -
