About this item
Since her parents? mysterious deaths many years ago, scientist Cora Sparks has spent her days in the safety of her university lab or at her grandmother Etta?s dress shop. Tucked away on a winding Cambridge street, Etta?s charming, tiny store appears quite ordinary to passersby, but the colorfully vibrant racks of silks, laces, and velvets hold bewitching secrets: With just a few stitches from Etta?s needle, they have the power to free a woman?s deepest desires.
