Genealogy has never been more popular. However, those considering a journey into the past should be prepared for the unexpected as adopted Michael Calvert discovers when he decides to investigate his birth lineage. It is the millennium, and journalist Michael is in professional and personal decline. When he decides to research his family tree, his enquiries have profound consequences for those he encounters in his bloodline, but he also disturbs a dark secret which once endangered his ancestors, and which reignites to threaten Michael sixty years later.

Set in wartime London and the present, the story is told through the eyes of Michael and his grandmother, Flora. As Michael tracks her footsteps through time, it becomes clear that Flora carried a secret that others were prepared to go to any lengths to suppress. But what was it? What was so damaging that it was worth violence and assassination even decades later? Dangerous Heritage is a mystery thriller with an exciting denouement, but it is also a voyage of self-discovery, romance and forgiveness.
