Genealogy sleuth Lydia Silverstream tackles one of her most difficult puzzles – demonstrating that there is no 6th Baronet waiting to claim the title and benefit from the millions that come with it. Why the special wording of the family trust? Who's buried so close to the family plot? Who shot the 3rd Baronet? As the official version of the family's history unravels, Lydia finds that being paid to do what she loves only adds to the pressure while her familiar demons circle in the shadows.
