Description

Anibaddh Lyngdoh claims
that she intends to introduce a new kind of silk to the floundering
American silk industry. But her true reason, as her old
friend Grace MacDonald Pollocke discovers, is far more personal.
Grace, now a Philadelphia portrait painter, undertakes
a perilous investigation that leads to the discovery of old sins
and crimes, and the commission of new ones. What laws may
be broken—what sins and crimes committed—in the service
of a higher justice? Deceit, forgery, fraud, perjury . . . even
murder?


This novel thrillingly evokes a nineteenth-century America
not so different from the present: a time of stunning new
technologies and financial collapse, when religious and racial
views collided with avowed principles of morality and law.
