A Small-Town Genealogist Uncovers Deadly Family Secrets Amid a Devastating Flood
In Rett MacPherson's Family Skeletons, Victory "Torie" O'Shea is the resident genealogist, historian, and tour guide in the historic German town of New Kassel, Missouri. When shop-owner Norah Zumwalt asks Torie to help piece together her family lineage and find her missing father, Torie cheerfully agrees. But before she can deliver her results, Norah is brutally murdered.
Now, Torie must use her skills at unraveling the past and understanding the human heart to solve a case of passionate secrets and betrayal. As the Mississippi floods, threatening the small town, evidence of another killing surfaces. Torie finds herself face to face with a chilling family skeleton that hits far too close to home.
In this gripping mystery, Torie O'Shea must navigate the treacherous waters of long-buried family secrets while fighting to stay afloat in a town drowning in deception. With her characteristic wit and tenacity, Torie races against time to expose the dark truths hidden beneath the surface before the floodwaters—and a cunning killer—consume everything she holds dear.
