A beautiful scarf, passed down through the generations,
connects two women who learn that the weight of the world is
made bearable by the love we give away....
September 1911. On Ellis Island in New York Harbor, nurse
Clara Wood cannot face returning to Manhattan, where the man
she loved fell to his death in the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire.
Then, while caring for a fevered immigrant whose own loss
mirrors hers, she becomes intrigued by a name embroidered
onto the scarf he carries…and finds herself caught in a
dilemma that compels her to confront the truth about the
assumptions she’s made. Will what she learns devastate her
or free her?
September 2011. On Manhattan’s Upper West Side, widow Taryn
Michaels has convinced herself that she is living fully,
working in a charming specialty fabric store and raising her
daughter alone. Then a long-lost photograph appears in a
national magazine, and she is forced to relive the terrible
day her husband died in the collapse of the World Trade
Towers…the same day a stranger reached out and saved
her.
Will a chance reconnection and a century-old scarf open
Taryn’s eyes to the larger forces at work in her life?
