While much of the basic historical plot of this story was good, the contemporary portion was filled with so many annoying implausibilities, I lost interest. First, how come the researcher kept discovering info in the chronicalogical order of his subjects lives? Hardly likely. Second that the Baker Estate apparently existed in trust without any actual heirs/owners, and that the lawyer with control of the estate didn't just get the papers she wanted and had access to, but constructed an elaborate plot to get a researcher to basically steal them from her--please. The fish out of water Easterner in the West also rang false as did almost all the modern relationships. Sorry.
