He only sought the truth. But some truths are best left buried. Wrexham, 1876. Meet Alfred Neobard Palmer, an unlikely hero. "It was a death which had brought him here. Death by snake venom, of all things." Palmer - and his more courageous sweetheart, young Ettie Francis. A series of accidental deaths which increasingly seem - well, more than simply accidental. Deaths luring Palmer and Ettie, slowly but surely, towards a terrifying climax through the treacherous waters of the North Wales coast. But can those deaths truly be linked to the huge coverlet on display at Wrexham's magnificent Art Treasures Exhibition? A patchwork of images both biblical and bewitching. And is there, literally, blood among the coverlet's threads? A glittering mystery by award-winning author David Ebsworth. "David Ebsworth's immersive body of work demonstrates a keen eye for historical detail." (Vaseem Khan, best-selling author and Chair of the UK Crime Writers' Association)
