Synopsis

“The best book I have read in a long time!”—Theresa Dodaro, author of The Porcelain Doll and The Bayman’s Daughter.

The old man wasn’t always old. He was barely 18 when he was drafted and sent to fight for his country. After a decade in an army at war, his instincts were finely tuned. Kill or be killed. But instincts don’t fade just because the war ends or even because you grow old.

Ashley England is a DNA analyst tasked with identifying the serial killer known only as the Vigilante Virginian. Using a combination of forensic genealogy and sheer determination, she is dead set on ending his reign of vengeance. When her investigation reveals far more than what was expected, the effects ripple across two continents and multiple lives.

From the long-ago battlefields in Vietnam to the modern-day laboratories of the California Bureau of Investigation, Lives Intertwined weaves an emotional family saga with a murder mystery that is better left unsolved.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Kaylon Bruner Tran has always loved to write, but becoming a novelist was never on her bucket list. When she took a creative writing class in high school, she found she had a knack for writing non-fiction. She interviewed classmates and enjoyed putting their stories on paper. Kaylon was excited when the time came to write the required senior English paper. She started her research early and finished her paper well before the deadline. A couple of her classmates were less enthusiastic about the project and turned to Kaylon for help. In the end, she wrote two senior papers in addition to her own (please don't tell Ms. Ammons!). When Kaylon's mediocre math skills put her dream of becoming an astronaut out of reach, she pursued a career in medical research instead. Kaylon received her PhD in Reproductive Pathology from Vanderbilt University in 1995 and spent 30 years investigating the causes and potential treatments of reproductive diseases. Reflecting her long-standing love of writing, Kaylon gladly took on the added responsibility of writing the majority of scientific documents emanating from Vanderbilt's Women's Reproductive Health Research Center. Curiosity about their genealogy led Kaylon and her family to take DNA tests. That decision led to the unexpected finding of a previously unknown relative. Kaylon was fascinated by her new relative's story and used it as the inspiration for her first novel, Time Intertwined. The historical fiction novel drew heavily on Kaylon's ability to present factual information in a compelling manner as she crafted an emotional family saga against the backdrop of the Vietnam War. She found the creative freedom of weaving a fictional story with historical events addictive, and her first book was soon followed by several more. Now, after three decades in the laboratory, Kaylon has decided to hang up her lab coat and spend more time with her keyboard.
