Victorian sleuth Arabella Grey travels to the once-grand resort of Greystone-on-Sea under the guise of rest. But when a widow is found dead on the shore, draped in antique mourning lace, Arabella quickly realizes the village harbors more than sea mist and seaside melancholy.
More deaths follow-each eerily staged, each victim wrapped in veils that whisper of the past. The only link? A long-forgotten dressmaker's ledger and a mysterious widow's society that once offered comfort... and now offers judgment.
As Arabella peels back layers of grief, memory, and revenge, she must reckon with women who have learned to weaponize silence-and lace stitched with more than sorrow.
A rich and atmospheric historical mystery exploring:The performance and policing of female grief
Secret mourning societies and forgotten rituals
The fine line between remembrance and revenge
Fans of Deanna Raybourn, Tasha Alexander, and Sarah Waters will be drawn to this haunting, emotionally layered tale of secrets by the sea.
