The Missing Link

It has been a little more than a year since Johanna Hudson realized that her genealogical research talents could be used for more than just revealing her client's family trees. Johanna, along with her partner Ava Lowell, and junior assistant Trinidad Owens, comprise Legacy Consultants.

Legacy takes on two new clients. Trinidad signs Simone Copeland, her first client. Simone wants to know her father and the relatives from his side of the family she never knew. She wants to meet the man who gave her only one gift - a shared fatal genetic disease.

Leslie Todd is another new client. A grandchild of a witness protection program witness. Her grandfather turned state's evidence, causing his family to change their identity, their home and their connections. As the only grandchild, Leslie discovers that who she thought she was, was a myth. Social Security numbers, birth certificates, residences were faked. Her parents were killed in an accident and the grandmother who raised her, dies-she knows only one person knows her truth. She seeks Johanna's help to locate her grandfather and her real background.

Only there was a reason why he was in the witness protection program-and it hasn't gone away.
