Family Knots

5 Stars I will just say that I truly enjoy this series. Ms MacFarlane is a great storyteller. Her books are rich with atmosphere and well defined characters, lead and secondary.

Living on his family's ancestral lands has opened the door to an increase of paranormal incidents. It shocks Hamish MacGrough when his oldest son, Birk, and his adopted sister's child show an increased aptitude for the supernatural. His own brushes with the 'sight' are developing.

Other things are changing for the MacGroughs. After the birth of their third child, Lori suffers from a mild case of postpartum depression. His longtime business partner and mentor, Warren, plans on retiring.

Hamish must decide who will manage the Los Angeles end of the business. To make matters worse, his father's family who he hoped to stay hidden from have finally found him. Hamish's cousin Catherine has an ulterior motive for seeking him out. As he suspects she wants something from him. The something she wants him to undertake will take him to a place he detests. The uncle he's never met has gone missing in the Klondike gold fields during the 100 year anniversary of the actual discovery of gold. Catherine is begging Hamish to find her father. She traps Hamish in the center of a tangled family knot.
