The Family Tree Mystery

A mystery death in the family

A woman in fear of her life

The reporter chasing the story

Crime reporter Colin Crampton gets on the trail of a big story when Hobart Birtwhistle, a distant relative of feisty model Shirley Goldsmith, is murdered. It looks like the mystery may lie a century earlier in the death of an Australian gold prospector.

As Colin and Shirley track down the killer, more murders bring the threat closer to home. The pair tangle with London gangsters, an eccentric Scottish lord, and a team of women cricketers in their hunt for the truth… and the shocking secrets of Shirley’s family tree. The laughs are never far from the action when Colin and Shirley face dangers they never anticipated as they race to crack the case.
