The Forever Witness : How DNA and genealogy solved a cold case double murder by Edward Humes. 

This is a nonfiction book, written in 1922, is the story of the 1987 murder of a young couple near Seattle. 

The solving of this crime marks the start of CeCe Moore’s investigative DNA work. 

My book group enjoyed this book very much.

Reading slump continues

I am able to listen to audio books (and podcasts) in my SUV, but that is all. 

I no longer use my ear buds and listen as I sew or walk or do things around the house. 

This means I get thru an average of two books a month, and keep up with my podcasts. 

In 2025, I think I read/listened to 148 books. 

This year I have done 11 audio books so far, with at least one not finished. 

I spent part of the year listening to Dateline and 48 hours and 2020 while I sewed. For the last couple months it has been the archives of Law and Order.
