Hilltop House Feature

Hilltop House recounts one woman's struggle to triumph over her past and her own insecurities as well as the expectations of the social elite who control life in the small town of Wheelerton.

Kate Bonner is the illegitimate daughter of Adell, who runs a bordello within her lodging house that caters to most of the powerful men in Wheelerton, including Sam Wheeler, the grandson of the town s founder who owns most of the town--including Adell's lodging house. Kate grows up humiliated and disgusted by her surroundings, and her feelings are cemented after a frightening assault that leaves her unable to experience intimacy with any man. She tries to find fulfillment in her life by throwing herself into turning a dilapidated house on a hill into a prestigious hotel, and her civic endeavors garner her respect and a place of leadership in the town.

When Kate meets Tony Durrell, a prominent lawyer with a complicated history of his own, their love seems to hold out hope of overcoming Kate s fears. But will Kate's past--and the drunken bitterness of Sam Wheeler--ruin Tony's political career? The secrets Kate has kept threaten to destroy them both until Adell, the underlying cause of it all, ironically becomes their only hope.

Triptych (Random House Large Print) Feature

From Atlanta’s wealthiest suburbs to its stark inner-city housing projects, a killer has crossed the boundaries of wealth and race. And the people who are chasing him must cross those boundaries, too. Among them is Michael Ormewood, a veteran detective whose marriage is hanging by a thread—and whose arrogance and explosive temper are threatening his career. And Angie Polaski, a beautiful vice cop who was once Michael’s lover before she became his enemy. But unbeknownst to both of them, another player has entered the game: a loser ex-con who has stumbled upon the killer’s trail in the most coincidental of ways—and who may be the key to breaking the case wide open.

In this gritty, gripping firecracker of a novel, the author of the bestselling Grant County, Georgia, series breaks thrilling new ground, weaving together the threads of a complex, multilayered story with the skill of a master craftsman. Packed with body-bending switchbacks, searing psychological suspense and human emotions, Triptych ratchets up the tension one revelation at a time as it races to a shattering and unforgettable climax.

The South is predominantly Christian, yet a small Jewish community in Lexington, Mississippi has flourished and sustained its unique identity. This saga is the heartwarming history of the residents, the trials and tribulations that they faced, their ability to connect with the surrounding Christian communities, and the remarkable story of Berman himself. After the original publication of this book, Lexington honored him by creating a "Robert Lewis Berman" day. In times of uncertainty, this book brings a message of hope.
