Toni Horvath is tired of being an orphan-again. No matter that she's thirty this time instead of a newborn. She's alone in the world, except for the needy fiancé she's stuck with because of a death-bed promise to the only father she's ever known. Her best friend encourages Toni to ditch Gordon and the ring he offers, but loyalty is a powerful tie. As if life weren't complicated enough with Gordon's political ambitions, a letter arrives at Toni's desk on the anniversary of her adopted father's death. The handwritten note from a seemingly-repentant felon recalls an off-hand comment Toni made when he passed through Toledo, Ohio's federal court two years earlier. His carefully printed words, "I can help you find the family you so desperately seek," set Toni off on a journey to find her family ties. But her naïve quest ensnares her as a mule for a counterfeiting ring. She must decipher not only phony documents but phony family and relationships before the FBI arrests her - or the villain makes good on his threats. Only by calling on connections with ties stronger than family does she have a chance to free herself from the tentacles of history and misplaced loyalties. For readers of Forty & Out (2014) and Burned Bridges (2018): Toni's adventure introduces us to a younger Jadz who is still a patrol cop. "Pulled a Star Wars" as they say, with Unwelcome Ties as a prequel.

"Questo libro, dovuto alla penna di un ex occultista ed ex surrealista come Louis Pauwels, con la collaborazione di quel singolare scienziato e mitografo che è Jacques Bergier, non costituisce né un romanzo né una narrazione fantascientifica, né un documento di fatti bizzarri, né una divulgazione di un insegnamento ermetico: pur presentandoci un po' tutte queste cose insieme. E' una specie di rapsodia di una nuova speranza, della grande avventura che gli sterminati orizzonti inaugurati dalle ultime scoperte scientifiche offrono all'umanità, speranza che si riannoda a sua volta ai sogni e alle leggende che attraverso i secoli sono stati alimentati da magia e occultismo e sono stati appannaggio di misteriose sette iniziatiche". (Sergio Solmi)
