Now Katharine's saddled with her Aunt's worldly belongings—mostly knickknacks destined for the dumpster. But there's a priceless Celtic necklace among the dross—and a diary written in German, neither of which Katharine's ever seen before. Determined to find out where these objects came from, Katharine unwittingly discovers a branch of her family tree she never knew existed—namely Aunt Lucy's brother Carter, murdered more than fifty years ago after a mysterious trip to Austria. And when Lucy's artifacts are stolen, and the main suspect turns up dead, Katharine realizes she must solve a burglary and two unsolved homicides separated by a half-century . . . before more than her family secrets end up dead and buried. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I can see myself in this cozy.I loved this novel because I could relate my own life to it. No, I don't have a husband who is a lobbyist. However, I am married to a retired Navy man and I too spent entirely too much time solving problems and raising 2 children while my husband was away. My career was being a Mom and a Navy wife. And, I too was left with an empty nest and a "now what?" time in my life. In fact, I'm still finding my way, like the heroine in this novel. The mystery is entertaining and the introduction ... Read More Rating:  - Family Tree Mystery"Death on the Family Tree" by Patricia Sprinkle is the first of a series. Katharine Murray is an empty nester. Her children are grown, one in college and one in China for two years. Her husband, Tom, works in Washington, DC and returns to his home in Atlanta only on weekends. The book starts on Katharine's 46th birthday. The characters in this book are very well drawn and the plot situations are realistic. One likes the protagonist and her family and friends. Reading the first book made ... Read More Rating:  - adequate enough, better than other oneI was unimpressed with my earlier reading of Patricia Sprinkle, and decided to give this one a try, as I'm a fan of genealogical research myself. This will probably be my last one, because the novel didn't really click. Perhaps the cozy genre itself isn't my thing. Kate Murray is appealing enough as a main character, with some unexpected edge as she pushes back at her unsupportive husband and flirts with a little action on the side. She sounded a bit like those astronaut wives who, when asked ... Read More Rating: - Death On The Family TreeExcellent new series and better written than her other books. E. Ferraro Rating: - death on the family tree"Death on the Family Tree" is a great mystery and a little darker than your normal cozy. The main character, Katharine Murray, has much room for growth throughout this series. She is only beginning to question who she is now that her children have left the house, & her husband is away most of the week on business. She is a real delight to watch, & I am sure we will be seeing more of Hasty, her love interest from high school. I am excited to see how Katharine comes to terms with her marriage & her feelings ...
