The setting is Austin

Memorial High and Texas A&M grad Stephanie Perkins wrote an award-winning, cozy mystery novel, Murder Once Removed, under her pen name, S.C. Perkins. (There’s another “Stephanie Perkins” author out there.) The genealogy-themed mystery was unveiled at a discussion for 40 fans, led by Stephanie, for the Houston Junior Forum and friends at Judy Perkins’ home. Stephanie won The Malice Domestic Best First Traditional Novel contest with this book. Cookies with silhouettes of “relatives” on a family tree were served since a genealogist-turned-amateur sleuth is the root of it all.
