It's a boring, hardscrabble life for three sisters growing up on a Michigan farm in the throes of the Great Depression. But, when young Nellie, digging for pirate treasure, discovers the tiny blue-black hand of a dead baby, rumors begin to fly. Narrated by Nellie and her two sisters, the story follows the girls as they encounter a patchwork of threatening circumstances and take it upon themselves to solve the mystery.

The author did a brilliant job of capturing the sacrifices and hard work that three sisters had to make during the Depression era. This book was historically accurate as far as the author’s description of the time period, which I really enjoy with historical fiction. I highly recommend this for any historical fiction lover!
Monika P, Reviewer
Threads is a story thats set is Depression era, about three sisters who attempt to solve a mystery. The author has well researched the era’s emotions, reality and has wonderful captured in this novel. The attention to details is a highlight. I really enjoyed the story told in different pov (the sisters). Fast paced and not too heavy for a period piece. I found it easy to be sucked into the story and love the bond between the sisters. Beautifully written historical fiction. Really wish there were more books written about Depression era.
Thank you NetGalley and Charlotte Whitney for a reader’s copy of this novel. The review is based only on my opinion.
