Where do I come from? That question sets Ryan Littrell on a journey that crosses centuries and many miles. An anonymous letter, found at the bottom of a box of black-and-white pictures, reveals the first clues about his grandmother's family story, and soon those clues lead him to a country graveyard and a long-lost cousin. Then faded names in old books, along with a DNA surprise, unearth one more generation, and yet another. And as one hint leads to the next, from the 19th century back into the 18th, he discovers his family's place in a people's tragic struggle--a tale of heartbreak, betrayal, and unfailing strength. A real-life account, "Reunion" shows how our ancestors just might still be a part of us, and how our story began long before we were even born.
I like Wendy Roberts other series but found this one lacking. I found the main character hard to like. What I liked about this mystery is that it kept you guessing who was the killer. I'll be reading the second in the series to see how the characters develop! Barista Jen Hanby's coworkers give her a hard time for bringing coffee and pastries to a homeless man who sits outside her café—but she has a secret. The scruffy man is her father. She's also hiding the little matter of why her palm itches. But how can she explain that her hand has a mind of its own and writes messages from the beyond? Right. That'll get her Employee of the Month. When she finds herself scrawling your boyfriend is cheating on you! to herself on the bathroom mirror, she immediately dumps the guy. But then his little fling—who just happens to be her half sister—turns up dead, and suddenly Jen's homeless father is the prime suspect. Jen knows he is being framed.
