The Girl Who Wrote in Silk

A mysterious silk sleeve reveals a tragedy that could ruin one woman's family more than a hundred years later. 1886: Washed up on Orcas Island, Mei Lien is the lone survivor of a cruel purge of the Chinese from Seattle. She is determined to tell her heartbreaking story the only way she knows how: through needle and thread. A century later Inara Erickson uncovers details in the delicate stitching that could have far-reaching repercussions. Should she bring dishonor to her family by telling the truth, or tell no one, and dishonor Mei Lien? This brilliant debut is an atmospheric, beautifully woven tale about the importance of our own stories.
