The Irish Convict: A Jayne Sinclair Genealogical Mystery | MJ Lee
1 post | 1 read
Jayne Sinclair is a genealogical investigator with a knack for uncovering secrets. After a mysterious letter is found in a family bible, she's asked to research a client's Australian ancestors. The job seems straightforward; there is a comprehensive family tree, and an obituary of the first of the client's ancestors to settle in Australia, Annie Kelly, as she was the founder of a famous department store. But on digging deeper, Jayne uncovers a tangled web of lies, half-truths and deceptions. In fact, the more she researches, the less she finds. Who was Annie Kelly? And who was the mysterious letter writer?
Jayne faces one of the most difficult and puzzling cases of her career. How can she discover the truth when all she has to go on is lies?

I love Historical Fiction and MJ Lee never disappoints with his Genealogical Mysteries. These mysteries expose the 'less positive' areas of English history that is rarely talked about, and the back story of the protagonist brings you into the story on a personal level. This is the 10th in the series. All are easy reads and light diversions. I can't wait for the next.
