A town erased. A quilt remembered. Sixty names the county swears never existed.
When a summer drought draws down the old mill reservoir, the drowned bones of a town no one will name rise out of the mud - and with them, a quilt stitched with sixty souls that appear in no census, no church roll, no stone in any churchyard.
Abby Vance and the Cedar Hollow quilting circle have read the truth in cloth before. But Bell Hollow is the hardest thread they've ever followed: a whole community lost in a single spring night in 1891, its survivors scattered and paid to stay silent, its story buried so deep that the valley's finest families built their good names on the forgetting.
Following the sixty names from a courthouse basement to a ninety-four-year-old's bedside - from a scrap hidden in a loft to a coward's confession coded into a quilt, from a town risen out of the water to the graves it was never given - Abby uncovers an act of quiet, staggering cruelty, and the stubborn, loving way a drowned town refused to be erased.
Some secrets are buried. Some are only waiting for someone with the nerve to look.
The fifth Cedar Hollow Quilters Mystery - a cozy, heart-deep tale of grace over punishment, with two recipes from the Cedar Hollow kitchen.
