Uprooting the Family Tree, a contemporary fiction novella, by BarbaraHelene Smith is now available.
Amanda Duncan knew she was adopted, but when she’s told her birth mother is her adoptive mother’s younger sister, Amanda goes to California to learn more about her. There she teams up with a retired detective to search for the truth. Together they get entangled in a twenty-five-year-old cold case involving rape, kidnapping and murder. After critical evidence is mysteriously destroyed, the identities of Amanda’s birth mother and the rapist may never be solved.
Uprooting the Family Tree is available at Amazon.com as an e-book and paperback.
Also available on Amazon are the previously published Connie Murphy Mysteries and Assume Nothing. The Connie Murphy Mysteries are about a senior drug investigator dedicated to protecting public health and safety. The stories are based on the author’s seventeen years as an investigator with the Food and Drug Administration. The four mysteries in Assume Nothing are about ordinary women who find themselves in extraordinary situations while looking for the truth.
