Publisher's summary
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…

Story
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Jane Austen fan Amelia Bennett sneaks away from a dull tour of an English country manor, only to run into a man more dashing than Mr. Darcy himself. About to lose his ancestral home to family debts, charming aristocrat Tom Calder invites his American guest to join him in drinking his way through the estate’s priceless wine collection. But when they wake in his bed the next morning, they’re convinced that in their drunken haze they witnessed a murder. Problem is, the body has vanished and no one believes them.

Story
Buckhead isn’t a place you live, it’s a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren’t nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy. Because in this town, privilege and opulence go hand in hand with betrayal and revenge. Jenny, the owner of Glow, an exclusive membership-only beauty salon, knows that better than anyone, because she knows everything about these housewives—down to each individual strand of hair.

Loved the merging of the Morton and Venator series!
Nathan never disappoints with his stories-this was a treat because it included Maddie and Rootstech as well as a great cliffhanger. Was especially delighted that Maddie was voiced by Bryn Austin and not Ian Pringle. Mr. Pringle is great except when it comes to American accents…A great listen!!

Yet another riveting tale from NDG!
Loved the international storyline that winds through several surprising twists; the insider’s peek at the (very real) vibrant genealogy community; and the way the author tells historical stories with both attention to the details of the past and the universal themes that connect them to the present.

Thoroughly Enjoyable
Short, but very satisfying, and well worth a credit. As always, Nathan Dylan Goodwin’s books are well written, well performed, and very entertaining. Morton Farrier has become a good friend, and I eagerly await his next adventure.
