Summary

Keeps the shocks coming right up to the climatic end…” Lisa Gardner

The DNA results are back. And there’s a serial killer in her family tree…

Liz Catalano is shocked when an ancestry kit reveals she’s adopted. But she could never have imagined connecting with her unknown family would plunge her into an FBI investigation of a notorious serial killer…

The Tri-State Killer has been abducting pairs of women for forty years, leaving no clues behind – only bodies.

Can Liz figure out who the killer in her new family is? And can she save his newest victims before it’s too late?

A gripping, original thriller for fans of My Lovely Wife, Netflix’s Making a Murderer, and anyone who’s ever wondered what their family tree might be hiding…

Praise for The Family Tree:

“A very original take on the serial killer theme with plenty of jaw-dropping moments.” Alex Pine

“A fresh, inventive take on the thriller. Brilliant and deliciously dark until the very last page.” Jeneva Rose

Pacey and compellingly creepy.” Sharon Dempsey

“This twisted and twisty thriller is sure to keep you up at night – either because you can’t stop reading, or because you’re too afraid to sleep.” Megan Collins

“A fast-paced thrill ride, with dark twists and clever plotting that had me triple-checking the locks before I could finally fall asleep” Andrea Bartz

Critic reviews

“This thriller keeps the shocks coming right up to the climatic end.” Lisa Gardner, author of Before She Disappeared

“A cracking debut, a very original take on the serial killer theme with plenty of jaw-dropping moments” Alex Pine, author of The Christmas Killer

“A fresh, inventive take on the thriller. Brilliant and deliciously dark, it’ll keep you enthralled until the very last page” Jeneva Rose, author of The Perfect Marriage

“Such a great premise, with characters to root for and tension that escalates, leaving you longing for the next instalment. The Family Tree is pacey, compellingly creepy and at times blackly funny” Sharon Dempsey, author of Who Took Eden Mulligan?

“Chilling from page one, this twisted and twisty thriller is sure to keep you up at night – either because you can’t stop reading, or because you’re too afraid to sleep” Megan Collins, author of The Winter Sister

“Mesmerizing and chilling, The Family Tree simmers with tension. Expertly paced, it will keep you turning the pages right up to the stunning conclusion.” Daniela Petrova, author of Her Mother’s Daughter

“Packed with a fresh plot and page-turning pacing, you’ll have a chilling new perspective of DNA matching after reading The Family Tree. From the first page I was hooked as it ventures into the worst-case scenario of an ancestry search…right into the arms of a serial killer. One word captures it all: unputdownable.” Pamela Crane, author of One Perfect Morning

Captivating but corny

Captivating story, a bit chic lit and corny at times but I was intrigued to listen all the way to the end!

Interesting book

Well written and kept me listening. A light read but worth listening to. Genetics can be frightening and nice twist at the end.

very irritating main character

I finished because wanted to see what he would do. what an idiotic woman. also the narrator made the female characters sound like breathless 12 year olds.
