Roots Never Die

By Shannon Funkhouser

Jo Salvatore makes her living uncovering other people's pasts. But when a woman's face appears in her bathroom mirror - a face that looks exactly like hers - Jo discovers a century-old secret hidden in her own family.

A cedar chest in her grandmother's attic. A leather-bound journal written by a woman named Evelyn DeLuca. A compact with a hidden note. A bullet in a jar. And a murder that was buried before the body was cold.

With her best friend Tia pulling records and her grandmother Nana holding the pieces no one else can, Jo follows a trail of artifacts and visions from 1920s New York to a truth someone powerful made sure would never be found.

Some secrets are buried. Others are inherited
