Friends of the R. T. Prince Memorial Library will have their monthly meeting on September 8 at 2:00 p.m. Everyone is invited to come. Staff Pick  The first in an exhilarating new series following a group of extraordinary women who are out to see justice done ... a step at a time. Nikki Quinn is devastated when her best friend Barbara is knocked down and killed by a hit-and-run driver who claims diplomatic immunity. But Nikki has her work and her lover, fellow lawyer Jack Nolan, to keep her going, whereas Barbara's mother, Myra, has nothing. Festering in a sea of recriminations and hatred, unable to gain a sense of perspective, Myra is lost...until one day she switches on the evening news and sees Marie Lewellen, mother of a murder victim, take matters into her own hands and stab her daughter's killer. An idea is born, and within months, Myra and Nikki have drawn a group of women who have one thing in common: they have been failed by the American justice system, down but they're not out, and they're ready to find their nemeses and make them pay. Banding together, the Sisterhood plots the ultimate revenge -- but with dissension from inside the group and out, there's no saying if the plan will work until the moment of truth arrives.
