Resumen del Editor
Begin a journey in the footsteps of the mysterious Nancy Moon and piece together the secrets of one extraordinary long-lost summer....
To unravel the story of that long-lost summer, she had to follow the thread....
Florence Connelly is broken-hearted; her beloved grandmother has just died and her marriage has collapsed.
But things change when she opens a box of vintage 1960s dress patterns, discovered inside her grandmother's wardrobe. Inside each pattern packet is a fabric swatch, a postcard from Europe and a faded photograph of a young woman wearing the hand-made dress. Why did Flo's grandmother never speak of this mysterious woman - Nancy Moon?
Her life in tatters, Flo decides to remake Nancy's dresses and to head across to the Continent to re-create Nancy's Grand Tour of 1962. As she follows the thread, Flo begins to unravel an untold story of love and loss in her family's past. And perhaps to stitch the pieces of her own life back together....

"Two captivating stories of love and heartbreak, stitched together by a trail through Europe in 1962. A scattering of clues to the secret of Nancy Moon." (Gill Paul)
"Warm and true.... I loved reading the entwined stories...pays tribute to the heart and backbone of women who support each other when the world turns its back." (Stephanie Butland)

Historia
After inheriting her mother’s fortune-telling business as a young woman, Imelda Burova has spent her life on the Brighton pier practicing her trade. She and her trusty pack of Tarot cards have seen the lovers and the liars, the angels and the devils, the dreamers and the fools. Now, after a lifetime of keeping other people’s secrets, Madam Burova is ready to have a little piece of life for herself. But she still has one last thing to do—to fulfill a promise made in the 1970s, when she and her girlfriends were carefree, with their whole lives still before them.

Historia
Biddy Weir is a quirky girl. Abandoned by her mother as a baby, and with a father who's not quite equipped for the challenges of modern parenting, Biddy lives in her own little world, happy to pass her time painting by the sea and watching the birds go by. That is, until she meets Alison Flemming. Because there are a few things about Biddy that aren't normal, you see. And Alison isn't afraid to point them out to the world. All of a sudden, Biddy's quiet life is thrown into turmoil. If only there was someone to convince her that, actually, everyone's a little bit weird....

The seat of the Trelawney family for over 700 years, Trelawney Castle was once the jewel of the Cornish coast.

But as the centuries passed the Earls of Trelawney, their ambition dulled by generations of pampered living, failed to develop other skills.

Awesome premise for a truly great story!
Totally enjoyable tale of Flo’s search for the mysterious Nancy following a trail of dress patterns, pictures, postcards, and trinkets from decades before. With a little mystery, lost love, and family devotion, the story flips between the two main characters who lived decades apart yet evolves into a story of each woman trying to find herself as defined by the time period in which she lived. Excellent tale with a totally agreeable narrator! May have to dig out my old sewing machine now.

Cuss words
I loved the story and the book but want others to know there are a few places where there are cuss words. Not many and really not needed. The story is complex and delightful. To bad the author thought she had to throw in some gutter words. I DO recommend the book as a whole.

Pleasant story
It is very predictable and there are really no surprises, but it is an enjoyable story. Kept my interest anyway.
