A 30 year-old genealogist is forced to face the pain of her own past while discovering that her talents can be used to solve more than her clients' ancestor family lines -- including blackmail and murder.

Genealogist Johanna Hudson discovers that the intersection of unintended consequences and murder is unavoidable, and her determination to find an heir puts her in the path of a killer who is just as determined to stop her.

This is my favorite book of the year so far. This classic mystery is my first exposure to this author. I look forward to reading the upcoming series. I enjoyed the aspect of a genealogist solving murders. The twist involving the death of her husband was interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great debut
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2021

The storyline quickly grabbed my attention becoming a pager-turner as I had to know how this was going to end. The mystery was nicely executed with a small list of suspects, but it was deciphering the clues that set the tone of what was to come. With visually descriptive narrative, the stage was set with engaging dialogue, a solid and eclectic cast of characters and an all-around feel for what was transpiring as Johanna’s determination to uncover the truth by digging into her client’s past. Overall a great beginning in this series.
