Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A stolen quilt. A twenty-year-old death. And a town that has been telling the wrong story for a very long time.

When beloved Pine Needle quilter Myrna Bell dies, she leaves Hannah Quinn her house, her papers, and the Flood Quilt-a patchwork record of the disaster that changed the town two decades earlier.

But at Myrna's memorial, Hannah discovers that her father's name has been covered over with a newly sewn schoolhouse block.

By the end of the funeral, the quilt is gone.

Danny Quinn died during the great flood at Miller Creek. The official account said he ignored a barricade and drove into the rising water. Pine Needle repeated that version for twenty years until it became less an accusation than a fact everyone thought they remembered.

Myrna believed otherwise.

She left behind no tidy confession and no single piece of proof. Instead, she left Clara May Wesson and Hannah something more difficult: a trail through the memories of the women who made the quilt.

One woman remembers a changed school receipt.One remembers an old delivery truck.One remembers Danny's work shirt.>None of them knows enough alone.

Together, they may know everything.

As Sheriff Nolan follows records, timestamps, and testimony, Clara begins to understand what Myrna understood too late: a town does not need one great conspiracy to bury the truth. Sometimes all it takes is fear, good intentions, convenient silence-and enough people carrying different pieces of the same night.

Warm, sharply observed, funny in all the right places, and grounded in the complicated loyalties of small-town life, THE QUILT CIRCLE KNOWS is a mystery about memory, responsibility, and what happens when the people who have spent years protecting one another finally begin to speak.
