Sinopsis

Two boys from the Foundling Hospital are given the same name, with disastrous consequences in adulthood. Two associates, wishing to right the wrong, are commissioned to find a missing heir. Their quest takes them from fungous wine cellars in the City of London to the sunshine of the Mediterranean—across the Alps in winter. Danger and treachery would prevail were it not for the courage of the heroine and the faithful company servant. The story contains crafted descriptions, well-drawn and diverse characters, eerie and exotic backgrounds, mystery, semi-concealed identities, brinkmanship with death, romance, the eventual triumph of Good over Evil, and many other elements expected in classic Dickens.

    Lace is the standalone sequel to Salt (Wales Book the Year 2021)
    PRAISE FOR LACE
    "Enthralling." – The Bookseller
    "With Lace, the stunning sequel to the award-winning Salt, Catrin Kean has spun an enthralling tale of trauma, redemption, and tangled family bonds: as delicate and complex as lace itself."  – Carly Holmes
    "Kean's writing is much like the lace Mary crafts in this sublime novel, intricate and delicate, tightly woven, robust and very finely controlled."  – Rachel Trezise
    
    "In the delicate dance of lacework, each thread becomes a conduit of transformation, weaving a tapestry of healing. The intricate patterns, formed with care and intention, create more than just a beautiful fabric—they spin the very threads of rejuvenation and hope, but not everything can be healed in one generation."  – Isabel Adonis
