Elizabeth Blair, American widow and quilt-shop owner, is discovering that behind Bath's tranquil facade lies a morass of betrayal, blackmail and revenge.
When Johnny Mulligan's wedding is cut short by his furious - and pregnant - lover, it causes a local sensation; a sensation that becomes more serious when Johnny's lover, Kat Gregg, is killed the same night. One obvious person had reason to wish Kat dead - and it is the jilted groom who is arrested for the deed. His mother turns to help to Max Shepard, private detective, and his assistant Elizabeth, to prove her son innocent.
The Double Wedding Ring quilt is a symbol of love and loyalty. But there wasn't much fidelity in Johnny Mulligan's life and it seems that he isn't the only one with secrets to hide...but who else could want Kat Gregg out of the way?
