( ) leslie.98 | Apr 1, 2013 | This is a very enjoyable crime/genealogy story. I'm very interested in genealogy so was pleased to get my hands on this book. Jefferson Tayte is an American who is called on to go to England to investigate an anomaly in a family history he is looking into on behalf of a client. There follows numerous occasions in which Jefferson risks his life trying to get to the truth. It's an interesting read, and I liked how it unfolded. I didn't guess the ending which is always the sign of a well-plotted story. I've already bought the next two in the series.

Driven by the irony of being a genealogist who doesn't know who his own parents are, JeffersonTayte soon finds that this new assignment shares a stark similarity to his own struggle. Someone has gone to great lengths to erase an entire family bloodline from recorded history and he's not going home until he's found out why. After all, if he's not good enough to find this family, how can he ever expect to be good enough to someday find his own? Set in Cornwall, England, past and present, Tayte's research centres around the tragic life of a young Cornish girl, a writing box, and the discovery of a dark family secret that he believes will lead him to the family he is looking for. Trouble is, someone else is looking for the same answers and they will stop at nothing to find them.… (more)

However, someone wants JT to go away and mind his own business. Many records are missing, and then a mysterious box is found and someone is willing to kill for that box.
The books starts out a little slow but once it picks up the pace it is a race to the end. Will JT find the documents he needs to give to his client or will the killer succeed in silencing him?
I'll be looking for more by this author, he writes a great book. (
