Honestly, the only reason I picked this book up was because, I thought the cover was pretty! I'm so glad I judged a book by its cover!
I won't go into the plot as the other reviewers have covered it well. All I will say is that I haven't been so engrossed in a mystery since I was addicted to Nancy Drew mysteries in junior high. This is the first of the Torie O'Shea series that I have read and the characters were developed enough that I felt like I had known them for some time. Also the mystery of "Anna's Story" really drew me in and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. This is a very simply written mystery, but, that's one thing I really enjoy about it. There were only a few curse words & no really graphic love scenes which was nice in my opinion.
I have ordered all the other's in this series that were available in this club. Hopefully, the others are as great as this one! Love it! Finally a grown-up mystery series that I can get into as much as I used to be into Nancy Drew!

Engaging and entertaining. It reads quick and leaves you wishing the next book in the series would hurry up and come in the mail!

Easy read. Torie O'Shea using genealogy research to solve a 150 year old murder while trying to prove her step father isn't guilty of murder in the present.

Torrie is a genealogist, and this time she is going to inspect a 150 year manuscript full of unrequited love...and cold--blooded murder, she wants to find some trace of whote the manuscript.
