It's hard to imagine anything really bad ever happening in picturesque Georgetown, Texas-until a famous face rolls into town and unthreads some very dark secrets... Virginia Davies Clark and members of the Bee Hive Quilt Bee and Chisholm Trail Quilt Guild, are all too familiar with the Greenwald estate. The Victorian mansion, known as "Borealis," was owned by nationally famous quilter Ann North Greenwald, and sits now vacant just west of the city limits after the murder of Ann. Georgetown is abuzz with excitement when Hollywood actress, Natalie North arrives and announces she inherited "Borealis" and selling off its old furnishings and renovate the mansion. A local developer and a local radical church group are shocked and will do anything to prevent Natalie from renovating it instead of selling it. And Virginia is intrigued when Natalie asks her to appraise the estate's sizable collection of quilts and Ann's notebooks. But the more she examines the quilts, the more they seem to point toward Ann's murder-and the murderer-and it's up to Virginia and her friends to stitch the clues together.
