Description
‘You won’t be disappointed!’
LostCousins
When forensic genealogist Morton Farrier accepted an invitation to travel to Salt Lake
City, Utah, to speak at the RootsTech genealogy conference, he had been unaware that
one of his co-panellists was to be none other than his former girlfriend, Madison Scott-
Barnhart. Whilst he prepares anxiously to meet her for what will be the first time in twenty-
six years—and hopefully to discover the unresolved truth behind her abrupt ending of
their relationship—he takes on the case of researching his wife’s mysterious great-
grandfather: a man who deserted his Sussex family shortly after the First World War. In
the course of his investigations and time in the States, Morton uncovers some shocking
truths, some of which are uncomfortably close to home…
