Lydia Proctor is back on the case - genealogy that is.  This time it's at the request of a Tri-Cities society founding member. When Jackie Grier asks Lydia to help solve a family dispute, Lydia takes the task on reluctantly. Patience becomes a virtue when Lydia has to appease Jackie and try to solve her family history problem the "right" way.

Murder, as she eventually learns, comes in many forms, both in the past and the present. 

As always Lydia has the support of her good friends, Faye, Muriel and Julia.
Join them as they make A Commitment to Murder.

An Old Fashioned Murder
    by Laurie Pooler Pelayo


When Lydia Proctor, working mother, volunteer librarian and for hire genealogist gets an unexpected phone call her life changes. For her genealogy is a fact finding mission, with an occasional skeleton now and then. But she learns that some families contain just a few more skeletons than others when she's hired to solve a one-hundred year old crime. Did Julia’s grandfather really kill his wives or was it someone else? With the help of Lydia’s good friends Faye and Muriel, clues keep pouring in until the real murderer is discovered. It’s a challenge trying to solve An Old Fashioned Murder.

Count Down to Book Signing
Well a week from today I have my second book signing ever. I have a ton of stuff to do still too. I need to get fliers printed and my books in hand. And before that even starts I have to prepare for a talk on genealogy on the 5th. It is going to be a very long and busy weekend! So come and see me either at the Kent Street Family History Center event Goldilocks and her forbearers or Sunday at the El Segundo Public Library from 3:45 to 4:45!
9:13 pm pdt
