Letters from the Dead

English

By (author): Steve Robinson

From acclaimed author Steve Robinson comes a thrilling new Jefferson Tayte mystery.

When genealogist Jefferson Tayte is hired to prove the identity of a black sheep in his clients family tree, he unwillingly finds himself drawn into a murder investigation with nothing more to go on than a 150-year-old letter and a connection to a legendary ruby that has been missing for generations.

As more letters are mysteriously left for him, Tayte becomes immersed in a centuries-old tale of greed, murder and forbidden love that takes his research from the wilds of the Scottish Highlands to the colour and heat of colonial India.

A dark secret is buried in Jaipur, steeped in treachery and scandal. But why is it having such deadly repercussions in the present? Can Tayte find the ruby and prevent the past from repeating itself before its too late?

This is the seventh book in the Jefferson Tayte Genealogical Mystery series but it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story.

About Steve Robinson

Steve Robinson drew upon his own family history for inspiration when he imagined the life and quest of his genealogist hero Jefferson Tayte. The talented London-based crime writer who was first published at age sixteen always wondered about his own maternal grandfather. He was an American GI billeted in England during the Second World War Robinson says. A few years after the war ended he went back to America leaving a young family behind and to my knowledge no further contact was made. I traced him to Los Angeles through his 1943 enlistment record and discovered that he was born in Arkansas Robinson cites crime-writing and genealogy amongst his hobbiesa passion that is readily apparent in his work. He can be contacted via his website www.steve-robinson.me his blog at steverobinsonauthor.blogspot.com and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/SteveRobinsonAuthor.
