About this series

Family Tree Mysteries #2
“Old family histories and…secrets, combined with smooth, suspenseful writing, make this a new series a reading pleasure!” –Margaret Maron
Katharine Murray is a typical Atlanta housewife, but she’s far from ordinary. She’s found a fascinating distraction from her empty nest in researching family history and genealogy. And it seems that she can put her genealogy-sleuth skills to work, helping her friend Dr. Flo Gadney, a retired professor, track down her own family tree.
Their search takes them to an old graveyard on an island off the coast of Georgia—just as greedy local patriarch Burch Bayard is about to start building sparkly new McMansions all over the island—including the gravesite—a property scheme that would literally bury any local history.
But as they hunt for clues to Flo's past, the two friends soon realize that the islanders are trying to keep Flo's connection to Bayard Island dead and buried along with her ancestors!
The mysterious murder of a combative local confirms their suspicions, forcing the women to embark on a dangerous chase to unravel the truth. Together, Katherine and Flo will dig up more than Georgia dirt, unearthing secrets to the island's history that could make the whole town crumble.
