Book - Meet the Author

Nathan Dylan Goodwin writes genealogical crime mysteries. He usually publishes a new book just before RootsTech, a genealogy and technology conference. The Sterling Affair, pictured below, is his latest. Note the scarlet and gray RootsTech bags. Wonder if there was an OSU person on the selection committee? 
When an unannounced stranger comes calling at Morton Farrier's front door, he finds himself faced with the most intriguing and confounding case of his career to-date as a forensic genealogist. He agrees to accept the contract to identify a man who had been secretly living under the name of his new client's long-deceased brother. Morton must use his range of resources and research skills to help him deconstruct this mysterious man's life, ultimately leading him back into the murky world of 1950s international affairs of state. Meanwhile, Morton is faced with his own alarmingly close DNA match which itself comes with far-reaching implications for the Farriers. (source)

Goodwin's books are page turners for me. I enjoy the plots as well as reading about  the genealogical methods he uses. Joe would have liked this one. It was all about spies.
