From Sleuth to Solopreneur

As a child I loved to shock others with the tale that I had been abandoned at birth by gypsies and raised with kindly mice in the crypt of an old church.

Alas! I was born and raised in the ancient and ghostly City of York – a Yorky who lives by the ethos that all is well with the world is there is a book, a decent cup of tea and a bar of chocolate to hand.

A dreamer from birth with a taste for history, a curious mind and the irresistible urge to create and write – I was bitten by the genealogy bug as a teenager, and have been researching the riddles within the gnarled branches and fallen leaves of my family history ever since.

From Sleuth to Solopreneur is the cautionary tale of a company founder and tombstone tourist wandering unquiet graveyards, uncovering research exploits as she haunts the archives, and the errors and trials of sleuthing family history.

And, as yet more tales of those long forgotten folk are unearthed – just what kind of mischief could possibly be unleashed by one lowly professional genealogist and grave hunter with an unseemly fascination for Victorian true crime and a passion for storytelling?
