Wren Mallory Genealogy Mystery Book OneBy Don Adams

About this audiobook
The DNA doesn't lie. But the family does.
Wren Mallory has spent years untangling other people's bloodlines — matching centimorgans, tracing surnames through crumbling county records, building family trees for strangers who want to know where they came from. She's good at it. Methodical. Quiet. She prefers the data to the people.
But when a woman named Patrice Ohlendorf hires Wren to trace her adopted mother's birth family, the results point straight to Harlow's most powerful dynasty — the Voss family, whose name is on half the buildings in town. Two days after Wren delivers her findings, Patrice is found dead in a library parking lot.
Then a second DNA match turns up dead on a county road.
Now Wren isn't just following a paper trail. She's following bodies.
In a small Midwestern town where everyone knows whose grandfather owned whose land, the past is never past. It's just misfiled.
