Based on a true crime, The Younger Girl, by trailblazing, award-winning writer Georgia Jeffries combines fiction and supernatural suspense to unravel a thrilling tale of family betrayal and long-denied redemption. In 1933, Chicago tabloids trumpeted the death of twenty-year-old town belle Aldine Younger. "HEIRESS SLAIN, MARRIED MAN HELD." In the tragic aftermath her grieving little brother Owen suspects that their wealthy uncle orchestrated a murder plot to cover up the theft of Aldine's inheritance. Over sixty years later, Owen, now an old man burdened by the weight of the past, is compelled to unearth the truth before he dies. His daughter, Joanna, becomes the key to unraveling the family's twisted history. The father and daughter journey back to Pontiac, Illinois to claim his rightful bequest. They find themselves caught in a web of lies and treachery crossing three generations. Owen's sanity teeters on the edge as he confuses Joanna with the sister he lost. Joanna, racing against time, discovers a psychic bridge linking past, present, and future. But at what cost? And who will survive the revelations?
