Porch Music

Porch Music, by Seminole descendant Kathy Maresca, is a 2022 Debut launching October 5th. A music-filled story of a family descended from Florida’s Seminole Tribe, set in 1952, Porch Music deals with secrets too dangerous to reveal. All sixteen-year-old Rose has is what she carries: a pillowcase of clothes, her boyfriend’s unborn child, and a heart full of shame. Seminole matriarch Ma-Ki Ebbing, however, embraces Rose. The Ebbing women band together to unite a family once rendered powerless by those who invaded their land. Will the tragic death of one of Ma-Ki's daughters bring her to identify the villain and embrace Rose’s newfound faith?
