Henry dreams of silence.
A world without the clattering of carriages through cobbled streets,
the distant cries of drunken brawls, the relentless ticking of the
clock.
Then he meets a fascinating, mysterious gentleman who sells just that.
Precious silk that can drown out the clamour of the world – and
everything Henry is so desperate to escape.
Summoned to Sir Edward’s secluded factory to try to cure his young
daughter’s deafness, Henry is soon drawn deeper and deeper into the
origins of this otherworldly gift: a gift that has travelled from
ancient Mediterranean glades to English libraries.
Ignoring repeated warnings from the girl's secretive governess, he
allows himself to fall under the spell of Sir Edward and his silk… but
when he learns its true cost, will it be too late to turn back?
