#Maeve Kerrigan

[bensoloren]

obsessed with detective shows/series where the partners are more emotionally intimate with each other than their own significant others. you’re my priority. i’d take a bullet for you. i’d do anything to protect you. you understand me better than anyone. everything you say, i listen. you’re my soulmate and i love you. we can never be together but what if what if what if—

A Brief Book Review of A Stranger In The Family by Jane Casey.

Released as a hardback by Hemlock Press in the United Kingdom on 14th March 2024 - a Maeve Kerrigan mystery ( Maeve Kerrigan 11).

A Brief Book Review of A Stranger In The Family by Jane Casey. It's another mystery for DS Maeve Kerrigan and DI Josh Derwent to solve - this time a couple are found dead in their bed - is it a murder/suicide or a double murder ? and how does this event link with the disappearance of the couple's 9 year old daughter 16 years earlier ? A good murder mystery , well written and with a cliff hanger at the end that will keep Maeve/Josh fans guessing....

Check out my review :

jace's mortal family

first up—they’re blended & multi-racial! they’ve got irish, latine, italian, black, & korean. their family portraits look like seven random people if one doesn’t look close. school pickups were a nightmare.

second up—they’re from roswell. conspiracy theory central. none of them are truthers, but i feel that it’s important to note that they are from new mexico. the first time any of them experienced a real winter was a sight to behold.

let’s start with the matriarchs, catalina doe & alessandra valencia.

catalina is a black woman who, despite what her surname may suggest, was not abandoned. her family just has an unfortunate name. she is a graphic designer. alessandra is latina & italian. she is an elementary school secretary. the two met one jace’s first day of kindergarten & later married.

bennett kerrigan is alessandra’s ex-boyfriend.

the two were never married, but were together all throughout high school and college. he is the father of her two bio children. the two broke up amicably after realizing that they weren’t the people they were when they fell in love. bennett helped raise the girls, not one to abandon family. however, upon alessandra & catalina’s marrige, he revoked his own parental rights, giving them to catalina. this doesn’t mean he isn’t around! he has father-daughter days and is always available (even to jace & eun). he only gave up legal parental rights, not moral ones.

the eldest & younger middle children are alessandra’s from her relationship with bennett.

the elder is mia kerrigan. she is three years older than jace. she works as a family attorney. mia feels that she brings an understanding to clients, especially clients with kids, due to her background. the younger middle is alessandra’s second daughter, maeve kerrigan. maeve is four years younger than her sister. she works as a reporter, doing both op-eds and research pieces. her career started before high school even ended, as she worked for her school newspaper. the local paper saw the articles she wrote and offered a job directly after graduation.

the older middle is jace valencia himself!

he is the son of catalina & the god mercury from their short relationship. while he did have catalina’s last name for a while, when alessandra offered adoption so custody would be secure should something happen, he asked to take her name as his own. catalina loved that her son adored his second mother enough to do it and alessandra was honored. no hard feelings about the name change exist between mother and son.

the youngest child is eun doe.

unlike the other three, eun isn’t biologically related to either wife. he was adopted from the system at twelve, changing his last name. he took catalina’s to contrast against jace having alessandra’s & the girls having their father’s. eun is a community college student.

now let’s talk extended family. there’s really only one worth mentioning—rachele valencia. also known as “nonna.”

alessandra’s mother, a widow who moved from her native santa fe to roswell to be closer to her daughter, her only living relative. rachele is in her golden years and knows she doesn’t have much longer left, so she spends her days trying to pass her culture to her grandchildren. she enjoys the blending of it with their own, especially when it comes to food.

let’s talk about jace’s family—the valencias! also known as the does and the kerrigans. (this post will be neglecting the paternal part of the tree, since that’s mercury & tbh i don’t wanna talk about godly relations).

first up—they’re blended & multi-racial! they’ve got irish, latine, italian, black, & korean. their family portraits look like seven random people if one doesn’t look close. school pickups were a nightmare.

second up—they’re from roswell. conspiracy theory central. none of them are truthers, but i feel that it’s important to note that they are from new mexico. the first time any of them experienced a real winter was a sight to behold.

let’s start with the matriarchs, catalina doe & alessandra valencia. catalina is a black woman who, despite what her surname may suggest, was not abandoned. her family just has an unfortunate name. alessandra is latina & italian. the two were married in massachusetts in 2004, a year after the state affirmed gay marriage. they had been together for two years at that point, but were plenty sure the other was the one.

bennett kerrigan is alessandra’s ex-boyfriend. the two were never married, but were together all throughout high school and college. he is the father of her two bio children. the two broke up amicably after realizing that they weren’t the people they were when they fell in love. bennett helped raise the girls, not one to abandon family. however, upon alessandra & catalina’s marrige, he revoked his own parental rights, giving them to catalina. this doesn’t mean he isn’t around! he has father-daughter days and is always available (even to jace & eun, who aren’t even related to him). he only gave up legal parental rights, not moral ones.

the eldest & younger middle children are alessandra’s from her previous relationship with bennett. the elder is mia kerrigan. she is twenty-eight and works as a family attorney. mia feels that she brings an understanding to clients, especially clients with kids, from her background.

the older middle is jace himself! he is the son of catalina & the god mercury from their short relationship. while he did have catalina’s last name for a while, when alessandra offered adoption so custody would be secure should something happen, he asked to take her name as his own. catalina loved that her son adored his second mother enough to do it and alessandra was honored. no hard feelings about the name change exist between mother and son.

the younger middle is alessandra’s second daughter, maeve kerrigan. maeve is twenty-four. she works as a reporter, doing both op-eds and research pieces. her career started before high school even ended, as she worked for her school newspaper. the local paper saw the articles she wrote and offered a job directly after graduation.

the youngest child is eun doe. unlike the other three, eun isn’t biologically related to either wife. he was adopted from the system at twelve, changing his last name. he took catalina’s to contrast against jace having alessandra’s & the girls having their father’s. currently twenty-one, eun is a community college student.

now let’s talk extended family. there’s really only one worth mentioning—rachele valencia. also known as “nonna.” alessandra’s mother, a widow who moved from her native santa fe to roswell to be closer to her daughter, her only living relative. rachele is in her golden years and knows she doesn’t have much longer left, so she spends her days trying to pass her culture to her grandchildren. she enjoys the blending of it with their own, especially when it comes to food.
