The Singer Sisters are a female family unit of twelve celestial beings who possess the strongest of water magic. They spin their unique influence through their angelic, mesmerizing songs. One thought from them can still any waters. One touch can heal any wound. And together, they can solve mysteries and put an end to troubles. With their woven layers of the water magic, the sisters exist between a world of the supernatural and the one tarnished by the hands of mortals. When one of them, Selah, marries a mortal named Jonathan and has a child, a spiteful, murderous ex, devises a scheme to kidnap and kill the child and her mother so that she can gain back the love of ex-Jonathan. With the mother and child gone, she believes, in her delusions, that Jonathan will come back to her. It takes the police, dog search teams, and, finally, the water magic of the Singer sisters to find and save them.

Emma’s got no lack of inspiration for her music — chiefly her mother Judie, a 1960s folk legend whose confessional songs made her an icon before her mysterious withdrawal from the public eye. Emma is baffled by Judie's coldness, and is deeply shaken when she learns a long-kept secret about their family. When Emma uncovers more about her mother's past, she is vaulted to new heights as a performer.

With the richness of a beloved folk song, The Singer Sisters moves between ’60s folk clubs and ’90s music festivals, chronicling the ups and downs of stardom while asking what women artists must sacrifice for success.

Still So Excited!: My Life as a Pointer Sister is an engaging, funny, heartbreaking, and poignant look at Ruth Pointer's roller-coaster life in and out of the Pointer Sisters. When overnight success came to the Pointer Sisters in 1973, they all thought it was the answer to their long-held prayers. While it may have served as an introduction to the good life, it also was an introduction to the high life of limos, champagne, white glove treatment, and mountains of cocaine that were the norm in the high-flying '70s and '80s. Pointer's devastating addictions took her to the brink of death in 1984. Pointer has bounced back to live a drug- and alcohol-free life for the past 30 years and she shares how in her first autobiography, detailing the Pointer Sisters' humble beginning, musical apprenticeship, stratospheric success, miraculous comeback, and the melodic sound that captured the hearts of millions of music fans.
