The antique embroidery folio is for Julia Lavat only a parting gift from a former lover, an expensive trinket that can be put on the shelf and forgotten. But one day she opens the book and finds someone's handwritten lines in the margins. This is the diary of a girl who lived four centuries ago, whose name was Catherine. She was a maid, an embroiderer, and then a prisoner of Barbary pirates. Page by page, Julia delves into the story of a stranger. Catherine writes about the sea and the slave market, about Morocco and the people who surround her, about love that blossomed where it seemed only hatred could survive. And then something strange happens. The fates of two women separated by centuries begin to intertwine. Julia, unwittingly, follows Catherine's trail. From foggy Cornwall to hot Rabat. From my own shattered past to the secret that someone else's hand was trying to preserve on the yellowed pages. And there, among the bazaars and minarets, in a city where time flows differently, she will find not only the solution to ancient history. "The Tenth Stitch" is a novel about losses and gains, about the search for love and one's place in life. Immerse yourself in an atmospheric historical novel with elements of mysticism and mystery: intertwining destinies, a diary from the past, and the mysteries of ancient books. Ideal for fans of time travel novels, stories about family and personal secrets, books about Morocco and Cornwall, about embroidery and forgotten crafts, about love despite circumstances and the search for oneself. Are you looking for an exciting novel about the connection of epochs, about how the past invades the present? "The Tenth Stitch" will captivate you from the first page. A bestseller for fans of historical prose, women's prose and intriguing plots, where every line of the diary is a new mystery.
