What’s not to like? A British police procedural, a cold case tied to current murders, and a genealogist who helps solve the case. “We can’t escape our history.”
Megan Smolenyak admitted to this book monopolizing her time for a while, and an interview with the author is also posted on her RootsTelevision. As she notes, you certainly can’t tell that author Dan Waddell isn’t a genealogist–he did what he had to do to make this book sound authentic, exploring many of the many reasons we genies pursue our craft.
I love reading mysteries and I’ve always related my love of genealogy to that enjoyment of mysteries. This book is a very satisfying combination.
