A Conundrum

A Conundrum is the first in a trilogy about the family who can trace their line back to the seventeenth century. They are scattered throughout the world but now, in the twenty-first century, have homogenized their financial dealings. They are like a combination of European monarchy and the Sicilian mafia. They kept the bloodlines pure and encouraged hubris in all, particularly the males. Now there is a problem—an unsanctioned murder in Australia.
