There was something unusual about the Sharp family. The father and the four daughters seem to share an unusual psychic power. It was perhaps a form of clairvoyance coupled with other supernatural powers. Little did they know where this would take them.
The Bayeux Tapestry is an obsession of Professor Sharp's. Was it really created before 1066 and has it been misunderstood? What was its purpose? And why do the Nazis want it? Is it possible that it might help them win the war?
THE TAPESTRY OF TIME, by Kate Heartfield, is a perfect blend of history, the supernatural and the strength of family. Well-plotted and propulsive, the author takes readers through harrowing and unimaginable situations where the survival of the characters is threatened with every step. The imagery is impeccably detailed and what may have once seemed impossible becomes believable. The characters are three-dimensional, individualistic and unique. It is fascinating to see how they come together during the worst of times no matter the risks.
From start to finish THE TAPESTRY OF TIME, is immersive. The narrative presents a different take on a part of World War II history which makes it an interesting story and one that readers won't soon forget. Highly recommended.
Love, heroism and the supernatural collide in the midst of war.
