By Bestselling Author Kathleen Ernst
From Midnight Ink Books

"Lace is the fabric that holds together past and present. 
In this heartfelt tale of labor and love, Ernst produces one of her most winning combinations of historical evocation and clever mystery." --Kirkus Reviews

Museum Curator Chloe Ellefson needs distraction from the unsettling family secret she's just learned. It doesn't help that her boyfriend, police officer Roelke McKenna, has been troubled for weeks and won't say why.

Chloe hopes a consulting job at Green Bay's Heritage Hill Historical Park, where an old Belgian-American farmhouse is being restored, will be a relaxing escape. Instead she discovers a body in a century-old bake oven.

Inspired by a courageous Belgian woman who survived cholera, famine, and the most devastating forest fire in American history, Chloe must untangle clues to reveal secrets old and new . . . before the killer strikes again.
