When Addie Russell arrives in the UK from Boston, a failed relationship behind her, she's eager to embark on something new. She's inherited a house in Surrey and hopes to find out about her English family. Addie was adopted at birth, when her mother died, and she knows very little about her mother, who was travelling around the US. Apart from that, there are the grandparents, who wanted nothing to do with her, and the father, about whom she knows nothing at all. Soon, Addie will discover the family secrets, and will also meet more than one man. But will she find true love - and will the family be all that she hoped for?
... an engaging narrative voice ... I was immediately drawn into the story.
Donna Condon, editor, Piatkus Books
The atmosphere is skilfully built, humming with suspense ... evocative images and well-chosen vocabulary ... a page-turner.
Adrienne Dines, author
... likeable people ... excellent family dialogue, which races along most satisfyingly.
Historical Novel Association Review
Set in Guildford and the West Country in 1991, Addie's research takes her back through three generations to the First World War. A bit of history, mystery and romance in one package.

We have just returned from holiday where I read your book. I must say that I really enjoyed it, and in parts I could not put it down.
Barbara, Haslemere, Surrey
I find Tainted Tree very interesting and readable. The way you developed the plot is very good, the reader can't put it down. I nearly missed my stop on the train last Monday. I have read your other two books , but find this one the best. You were absolutely right to celebrate the launch in style - the book deserves it.
Susan, Pirbright, Surrey
Great read - I really enjoyed it - genuinely interesting, compulsive reading and so relevant to what is happening today. Well done - look forward to the next one.

Just a short note to let you know how much I enjoyed Tainted Tree - in fact I couldn’t put it down - it was a really interesting saga, beautifully written (a real ‘tear-jerker’ at times!) and I loved the characters, especially Addie. Thank you for a ‘good read’, Jackie.

I finished Tainted Tree and LOVED IT! I want you to know how much I enjoyed the book - I picked it up and kept reading through, stopping only for meals and the occasional bathroom break. I wanted to read while eating lunch, too, but my hubby took offence, so I set it down long enough to gobble up my salad.

The author immediately caught my attention. The story kept me greatly interested and turning pages quickly.A baby born and adopted in America sets off to find her English family. The story takes us back and forth from the present as Addie searches for her family to the past over generations to piece together her family tree.
I enjoyed the touch of romance, but mostly the genealogy research and piecing together of the tree. It was interesting to see the changes in her family tree as she unlocked secrets in the lives of her ancestors.

Tainted Tree edition by Jacquelynn Luben Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
To me, Tainted Tree was not the genealogical story I was expecting. It was an okay story but I would put it more in the romance genre than genealogical mystery. Granted, there is the young American lady who inherits a British house from a godfather she didn't know existed. (She was adopted by an American family when her mother died when she was born.) When she arrives in England, she decides to search for her immediate ancestors who she has no information about except a name or two. In her search, she finds some very unsavory facts but she also finds good friends and even love. Although this is a decent story, it pales when compared to "In The Blood" or "To The Grave" written by Steve Robinson!
I wanted another ending with this storyline, but I liked the story itself. It was a different story and quite entertaining.
Nice read on a snowy afternoon. The characters were believable and although the story could drag, it was still a treat.
This tale reveals its' secrets , building step by step. In the end all is resolved I with a happy ending.
This story is about a woman who was adopted at birth and knows nothing about her real family. After receiving an inheritance, she attempts to find her real family and finds some surprises.
Appealing story line. I liked the genealogy aspect. The story got a little long, so dragged toward the end, and the main character got a little whiny.
This is the type of story that you HAVE to find out how it ends, both for the genealogical thread and the main character's personal thread. I found it engrossing and got back to it every chance I could. I like that she doesn't say "he said" "she said" all the time. But that's a personal quirk. A Little slow paced at times, and I would have like the main character fleshed out a bit more. Scene setting, like when they visit Bath is very good. Enjoyable read and Jacquelynn Luben has excellent writing skills.
