Tangled Ties: A Gilded Age family mystery

Old sins cast long shadows.

Overcoming years of hardship, Hungarian immigrant George Bodnár established a comfortable life for his family in America's Gilded Age. When a unique opportunity opens for Lizzy, his remarkably talented daughter, George hopes it will lift her-and the entire family-further up the social ladder.

Lizzy becomes a student at the best boarding school for girls in New York. She carries the world before her, gaining access to the opulent ballrooms and sumptuous parlors of the wealthy. Caught up in her studies and social life, Lizzy has no idea that they are leading her into the middle of a dangerous, tangled web of lies.

Secrets, deceits and sorrows of the past are lurking around the corner to catch up with George in unexpected ways, shaking his beliefs, crushing his ambitions and threatening to destroy his family.

He knows only one thing: he must protect his daughter at all costs.

Tangled Ties is Book Two in the series of "Will Blood Tell?", a sweeping family saga in the Gilded Age of America.
