Crossed bones

Her lover left her with a parting gift. When Julia Lovat is dropped like an unlucky penny by Michael, her lover of several years, he gives her a book - The Needlewoman's Glorie - which belonged to a Cornish girl some 400 years past. Her quest to uncover the story of its owner takes Julia back to 1625, when Cat Tregenna is taken captive by Barbary pirates. Cat survives sea battles and the journey to Morocco, catching the eye of the corsair's captain, before being sold into slavery. The entwined story of two young women, which begins on the craggy Cornish coast, ends 400 years later in the dusty bazaars of modern-day Morocco. -- back cover.
