These heart-warming historical mysteries will send you on a unique New Zealand adventure.

Ratings and reviews

All Tilly's books grab me and leave me wanting more of the story. I loved the characters, especially Grace and her best friend Sam - such great support to each other. The story lines are well written and I can't wait for the next one 😍

Love that this book is about sewing. One of my many favorite things to do. Another book that is hard to put down

Nice little read. I hope Grace can learn to use her gift in the future.
