It takes all of Michael Buerk and the heir hunters' cunning and craftsmanship to beat their competition in tracking down her rightful heirs.\n\nMeanwhile, an illegitimate birth proves to be a tricky stumbling block to finding family members of Phillip Horsley, an undertaker and ex-air force serviceman, while the search for beneficiaries uncovers family members who succumbed to the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918.
