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?
