Barbara Michaels – Stitches in Time

The quilt captured Rachel Grant’s imagination. An antique bridal quilt, which appeared under mysterious circumstances in the vintage clothing shop where Rachel worked, it drew her as is if it had been made for her. It was beautiful, mesmerizing… almost eerily fascinating. She little dreamed that it might hold secrets better left undisturbed.

Rachel had never been able to resist the allure of finely crafted textiles from times gone by. Her research into women’s crafts led her to believe that through the ages women had woven protective magic into the fabric of all they fashioned for their rites passage-of-darkness-the-ethnobiology-of-the-haitian-zombie/" title="Wade Davis – Passage of Darkness: The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombie ebook pdf mobi epub" style="text-decoration: underline">of passage: birth, marriage, and death.

It never occurred to Rachel that the same power used to protect could also be used to harm. But day by day she saw and felt the power grow – the quilt was influencing her thoughts, her actions. And this was not the benign white magic of her imagination. Much as Rachel’s rational mind longed to deny such an uncanny phenomenon, the aura of evil emanating from the quilt was all too frighteningly real. The carefully crafted heirloom carried a sinister legacy into the present, something that threatened to destroy the people Rachel loved.

In a spellbinding return to the setting and characters of her much-loved novels „Ammie, Come Home” and „Shattered Silk”, „New York Times”-bestselling author Barbara Michaels once again weaves a fascinating tale of suspense and the supernatural.   źródło opisu: HarperCollinsPublishers, 1995 źródło okładki: www.amazon.com
