But little did the staunchly abolitionist Gerda know that a traitor was among them, placing the Bergstroms in grave danger and leading to family discord, betrayal, and a secret held for generations. <p/>With the help of the Elm Creek Quilters and clues hidden within antique quilts discovered in the manor's attic, Sylvia stitches together the pieces of her past and decodes the true nature of the Bergstrom legacy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"One of the most compelling storytellers I've read.... This is a series that has touched my heart. Chiaverini makes her characters and plots so real readers feel as if they've stepped back in time."<br> --Jean Peerenboom, <i>Green Bay Press-Gazette</i><br>
