This is a very good story if you are interested in Genealogy. It links the purposes of doing the research of records with the DNA testing now available through a story of several individuals throughout the world. - Stephanie Schickinger, July 21, 2020
Mr.Ahrens never fails to keep the reader intrigued. I found myself having to resist skipping ahead to see how it all turned out!
