About this book

Former police detective Jayne Sinclair now works as a genealogical investigator. She is hired by an adopted American billionaire to identify his biological father, armed with only three clues: a photocopied birth certificate, a stolen book, and an old photograph. As Sinclair pursues the investigation, she discovers someone else is searching for the same answers—a killer determined to keep the past hidden. The case takes her through the historical events of the Easter Rising of 1916 and the Irish War of Independence, blending genealogical research with modern-day thriller elements. This is the first novel in a series featuring Jayne Sinclair as a genealogical detective.
