Not seen these before but the premise is certainly interesting – heir hunter uncovering dastardly deeds in the past. The scope for stories in this vein is considerably large, especially considering how many real life ancestral tales revealed on rootschat are such eye openers.
On a more straight forward note may I recommend Damned Charity, a historical fiction  Kindle e-book set in the East Midlands during the Great Cheese Riot of 1766.

Came across this one;  Tainted Tree by Jacquelyn Luben.  Another genealogy driven novel.  Reviews look excellent & only 1.90 for Kindle download  :)

Glad you enjoyed it Maria. Try his other books, To the Grave & Last queen of England.  Haven't read the last one but To the Grave was good!

A thumbs up from me for 'To The Grave', managed to get it the other day for £0.79 on Amazon, although I see it is £1.99 today (always worth checking regularly as prices go up and down).  Yet again, though, be warned that once you start reading, you will find it hard to get anything else done until you reach the end  ;D.
