To celebrate the publication of the fourth book in my Family Mystery History series, DEAD IN A FLASH, due out on August 30, I’m giving away the the first two books in the series, PAGING THE DEAD and DEATH IN REEL TIME, along with one of my favorite genealogy tools, a 30X magnifier loupe. This one is a bit fancy. It’s a folding pendant on a handmade Kumihimo beaded cord attached to a long silver-toned chain. This way you can be fashionable as you work on identifying those old family photos. If you’d like to receive this package just leave a comment below.

As a family tree researcher myself, I have taken great pleasure in your genealogy mysteries. Esme and Sophreena and their friends are a delight and I especially like the psychic story line. Recently I’ve been examining my family photographs and found the small group of people in front of a house photo included my husband’s grandmother as a young woman with her first three children. Your 30x magnifier would certainly be a godsend. I’ve pre-ordered Dead in a Flash and am so looking forward to its release. Thank you for a wonderful series.
Would love to win this package! The series sounds amazing, and I am a huge genealogist…everyone in the family turns to me for answers to the family tree questions. The magnifier would be a huge help to these aging eyes!
Love genealogy mysteries and have not come acrosscthIs series, so i would certainly enjoy this package.
I’d LOVE to win! Please throw my name in the hat!
I am looking for a new series. I would love to try this one. Our friend Diane Chamberlain referred us.
I, too, am looking for a new series and would love to start this one. Thanks for the opportunity to win a fun package!!

I’m a family historian, but haven’t had the pleasure of reading your books. They do sound right up my alley, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed I’ll win the package. Thanks for the opportunity.
Now that my parents are gone, it is much harder to do family research. I’ve found several cousins on facebook and am finding out about their families. As for reading, it is like breathing. If Margaret Maron recommends these books, I will definitely read them. I love her books. Thanks for this suggestion!

I’d love to win your Giveaway – especially since I’ve traced one branch of my family tree all the way to the 1400s, and found relatives who fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and family members on both sides of the the Late Unpleasantness.
As both a lover of mystery and family history I’m excited about reading your books. I’ve been working on my own family history for over 30 years and have needed to be somewhat of a detective in digging out the details. I’d really love to be the lucky winner of your giveaway.

Would love to win this giveaway. Just found my baby scrapbook dated febuary1935- Mach 1936.I’m seeing pictures I’ve never seen before of my Washington D.C. family and my mom wrote on the back of each photo.This is making me cry. I’m working on my native American grandfather on my mom’s side Piece by piece.
I would really enjoy reading your books. Family history is so complex and fun to work on. My family is English and Irish. We’ve discovered a lot of information on the Irish side. but the English side is baffling!
I do genealogy, but have never read your series. I’d love to. Thanks.
This sounds sooooo intriguing! Would love to learn more about all of your books! Interesting! Family history can be incredibly interesting, shocking, complex, and everything in between.
I’m intrigued by the idea of books that combine two of my favorite things, genealogy and mysteries Thanks for the chance!
This looks like the tye of book I would love to read! I am nrew to your books, but I love the two subjects together, mystery and genealogy, sounds so awesome!!!
Just love mysteries and genealogy
Will have to check this series out!
Shout out to Margaret Maron, found this via her FB post!
Like several others, two of my favourite things, Mysteries & Genealogy, I’ve been having fun discovering my family for almost 20 years now 🙂
Love your books and am looking forward to the newest one.
So excited to read we can have an opportunity to get 2 of your books and tools to continue with our family history. My parents started down the road to learn about our families’ past and I have continued the journey. Now, I am encouraging my nephew and am thrilled to have another member along for the ride. History and mystery…great reads…always – true or not. Thanks!
I just stopped by, after seeing Margaret Maron’s post! Congratulations on your newest title!
I.enjoy your books very much and am eagerly awaiting the new one!

Thanks to Margaret Maron, I now know about your series. What a gift it would be to receive your books. Thanks so much for the opportunity!
What a fun giveaway celebration. Your books sound delightful! Thank you for the opportunity.
I have been working on our family tree for over 10 years. Ancestry.com has helped a great deal. Just heard about your books now and would love to receive the first two. I am going to order your latest. I often thought that the information we gather about our ancestors is probably just a hint of the stories that we wish they could tell us.
would love this!
Loved the first three can’t wait to read this one!
great giveaway. thanks for the chance.
I have never seen a cute magnification necklace. It’s definitely a sign that I’m almost 40 magnifying something is almost almost exciting to me as reading the books. #truestory
I love reading mystery novels and especially a series. Look forward to reading these.
Sounds great, would love to win these prizes!
