My Current Interest

                Lately, all I have wanted to do is read.   In a little over a week I crammed through three books.   Two were done in just over a weekend.   One of those two books was Death in Reel Time , the second book in the Family History Mystery series.   How long exactly it took me to get through this book, I don’t know.   All I know is it did not take me long, but I enjoyed it along the way.                           Genealogist Sophreena McClure and her business partner Esme Sabatier have had their services given to Olivia Clement, a local woman recovering from cancer, as a gift.   As they are working for free, they are not expected to go to the extents that they would for other clients, but they will be looking into Olivia’s family history and report...
