    Karen's voice was energetic and engaging. She drew us in with a story, then proceeded to research the sisters' true story. Karen gave examples of the various different details of someone's life - someone who has fabricated a life, and she showed how she arrived at the information her research found. This was a very enjoyable seminar. I came away with - never give up looking for information. Thank you!
