A beautiful scarf, passed down through the generations, connects two women who learn that the weight of the world is made bearable by the love we give away....
September 1911. On Ellis Island in New York Harbor, nurse Clara Wood cannot face returning to Manhattan, where the man she loved fell to his death in the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. Then, while caring for a fevered immigrant whose own loss mirrors hers, she becomes intrigued by a name embroidered onto the scarf he carries...and finds herself caught in a dilemma that compels her to confront the truth about the assumptions she's made. Will what she learns devastate her or free her?
September 2011. On Manhattan's Upper West Side, widow Taryn Michaels has convinced herself that she is living fully, working in a charming specialty fabric store and raising her daughter alone. Then a long-lost photograph appears in a national magazine, and she is forced to relive the terrible day her husband died in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers...the same day a stranger reached out and saved her. Will a chance reconnection and a century-old scarf open Taryn's eyes to the larger forces at work in her life?

That said, I don't think there is a book of Susan Meissner's that I have not given at least 4 stars to.
This one had it all for me, well done dual time line stories, very informative and moved along nicely.
Some reviews have said they thought it was corny, for young adults or had issues with some of the characters. All I can say is that I just enjoyed the listen very much. Tavia Gilbert is one of my favorite narrators.
The story It was tragic and uplifting at the same time. Just an enjoyable read for me. I actually wish it had gone on for a bit more.
I learned a lot about the hospitals and quarantining at Ellis Island in the early 1900's,. I just wish there had been more information about the fire.
4.5 stars overall
