About the Book

Turned down for this year's Nobel Prize, forty-two year old genetics pioneer Grace Farrington is known for her 'Farrington Fusions': sudden understandings that solve intricate DNA mysteries. She is content with her quiet life of work, until she discovers the new Director of ORR is the man who stole her research years ago! Knowing that Dr. Charles Theodore Marshall will be doing his damnest to discredit anyone he considered 'disloyal', she realizes that her position and those of her friends are in jeopardy. Hating Marshall, she wants to run again, instead Grace decides to stay and fight. Unfortunately, when a member of the staff is murdered on the octagon research boat, Grace finds herself chief suspect. She is further implicated when following an1830's witch's Curse of Three, two more people die. While hunting for the murderer, she finds herself becoming romantically entangled with an old money patron and a red necked colleague. Grace must utilize all her scientific reasoning and her eclectic group of friends (researchers, seance buddies, cops, and some other slightly eccentric New Englanders) to solve the Oyster River Harbor murders before she's arrested.
About the Author: Descended from generations of Tarot card readers (four that we know of), Lynn Marron has a wide range of interests: travel, genetics, camp cooking, psychometry, painting, science fiction, horses and wild animals, the supernatural world, historical reenacting, weapons of all kinds, miniatures, sailing ships and swimming, all of which manages to burst forth in her books. Lynn has written comic book scripts, short stories, radio plays, television scripts and novels. Reading that for a story in Fantasy and Science Fiction she had been nominated at the first level for a Nebula award, she hyperventilated for the only time in her life-keep that in mind if you ever decide to nominate her for a Hugo or Edgar! Trying to carve out time for writing, Lynn spent years as a Permanent Temporary, exposing her to: all sorts of jobs (Entenmann's Cake Pusher); and people (the guy, who coming out of his office, finding his secretary passed out on the floor, just jumped over her and kept on walking to lunch); and locations (working in places ranging from a two hundred and fifty year old flour mill to the World Trade Center). Now writing almost daily at home, she lives in Connecticut, with her computer geek husband, Lenny Bloom, and their two fifteen year olds, who refuse to allow their names to be connected with this latest humiliation (but it's George and Philip). Her gold fish don't care if she uses their names, they are: Lucky, Beluga, Splash and Jazz (But Jazz is missing-plot for another mystery book?) You can contact her at www.lynn@lynnmarron.com.
