Publisher's Synopsis
"Sometimes...you come to a bend in the road... you have to bend along with it, or you'll break." Words to live by. Certainly for Sylvie Minkoff, who learned them from the loving grandmother who raised her. Through hard work and perseverance, Sylvie achieves success and settles into family life in the Chicago suburbs, where she can indulge two of her favorite passions: a love of horseracing and a talent for knitting, both gifts from her beloved grandmother. Sylvie meets a pair of kindred spirits in Nina Lurie and Viv Reynolds. When Sylvie falls victim to a violent crime, shock and horror descends into grief and uncertainty. How well did they really know their friend? Desperate to unravel the mysteries and unanswered questions haunting them, Nina and Viv uncover a series of stunning revelations. A unique blend of mystery and emotion, murder and salvation SILKS AND STITCHES is an engrossing exploration of how life's twists and turns challenge us, and shape, not only the people we become, but those around us, too. It is, by turns, smart, sassy and suffused with ages-old wisdom passed from one generation to the next.
