Publisher Description
Twenty-eight-year-old struggling San Francisco artist Anne McFarland is determined to get a one-woman show, even though no one, including herself, believes she can do it. But when she buys a coat at a thrift shop with a key in its pocket, strange, even magical, occurrences begin to unfold, and she is inspired to create her best work ever.
Fifty years earlier, it’s 1963, and the coat’s original owner, young heiress Sylvia Van Dam, is headed toward a disastrous marriage with a scoundrel. In a split-second reaction she does the unimaginable, which propels her on a trip of self-discovery to nature-filled Northern Arizona. When Anne and Sylvia’s lives intersect, they are both forced to face their fears―and, in the process, realize their true potential.
Customer Reviews
I Enjoyed This!
A fun light read. Nothing too heavy but enough tension and surprises to keep things rolling nicely along. A dual timeline taking place partly somewhere in the pre pandemic 2000’s, and partly in the 1960’s, much of which felt quite authentic.
The Velvet Coat
Enjoyed reading this from beginning to end. Mystery and romance the perfect mix.
The Black Velvet Coat
I loved this book! I rarely sit for hours reading, but I found that I couldn't put it down.
