Bestselling Australian author Fiona McIntosh “brings her inimitable storytelling skills to this thrilling time-slip adventure packed with action, romance and one of history's most daring escapes” (Books in Print). Tapestry blends historical fiction and fantasy. In 1715, the Earl of Nithsdale is sentenced to be beheaded after he joins the doomed Jacobite rebellion for Scottish independence. Fast forward to 1978 - Jane Granger celebrates her engagement to Will, a handsome geophysicist descended from the Nithsdales, but soon a tragic accident leaves Will in a coma. In her quest to save her fiancée, Jane is swept into another century and another woman's body. Rewind to 1715 - convinced that saving Nithsdale will also save Will, she embarks on a daring and audacious plot to rescue the Earl from the Tower of London. Undoubtedly “a page-turner as the reader is swept into a race against time” (Bookseller & Publisher).
