About the Book
When Toria Ashton accepts a teaching position on a small Bahamian island, she hopes to find her Mother's Loyalist relatives who escaped from Boston in 1775. She is not looking for romance. That part of her life died when her lover was lost at sea. She had been told the island natives were friendly. She never expects to stumble onto several murders. In her worst nightmares, she can not imagine becoming the intended victim of a serial killer, but she finds herself fighting for her life in what should be a paradise on earth.
Jack Hardy, Editor of The Abaco Journal, has said of Distant Cousins, "This is a must read for anyone who has ever been to the Bahamas, or ever wanted to go there."
Distant Cousins, Marilyn Irr's second novel, is one of a four book series. The Howe Family Saga spans the years from 1775 to 1943. Don't miss the second book in the series, Whatever Happened To Charity, soon to be released. For information on this and other books by the author, contact Xlibris.com. at 1-888-795-4274.
