Alexandra Frobisher, a modern-thinking woman with hopes of a career in England's famous chocolate-making town of York, has received several proposals of marriage, although none of them promises that elusive extra: love.

He impresses Alex and her parents with his wit and intelligence, but would an amicable union be enough for a fulfilling life together?

Her life is beginning to feel complete. However, she insists on keeping a private promise she made to her late mother to work at the coalface of medicine in India before committing to life as a dutiful wife.

Publisher's Summary
The key to her future is trapped in the past....
A fabulous stand-alone historical fiction of love, war, and betrayal from the best-selling Fiona McIntosh. Tapestry takes us on a gripping journey from the 1970s into the England and Scotland of 1715.
The key to her future is trapped in the past ...
In 1715, the Earl of Nithsdale is sentenced to be beheaded for his part in the doomed Jacobite rebellion for Scottish independence.
In 1978, Jane Maxwell is plagued with doubts about her engagement. When tragedy leaves her fiance, Will, near death, Jane's guilt makes her determined to save him...somehow.
On a desperate and dangerous quest to find some answers, Jane finds herself trapped in the past. Convinced that saving Nithsdale will also save Will, Jane embarks on a daring plot to rescue the earl from the tower of London.
In the tradition of Diana Gabaldon, past and present become entwined in a gripping race against time, and both will be changed by one woman's determination.
"Tapestry draws readers into its intriguing take on the true story of the Earl of Nithsdale's romantic escape from the tower of London in 1715.... An absorbing read laced with plenty of action and historical romance." (Adelaide Advertiser)

Easy to follow passage through time
The storyline was excellent. The ending was not so easily predictable but well done. The timing of the story was also perfect. I found it only dragged in the beginning but once it got going I wanted to find out how it was all going to play out and did not want to put it down. The reader had slightly too baby a voice in my opinion

Enjoyed story but not the narration
The story was mostly predictable, but I enjoyed it all the same. However the narration left a lot to be desired and marred the experience of listening to this on audio. I found the narration wooden, with some words mispronounced (eeek, like nails down a chalkboard to me!) and the emotion of the characters was not well-conveyed at all. A person getting shot next to one of the main characters was read with about the same expression as two of the characters going to a coffee shop. The accents were inconsistent - the main character was read with an Australian accent even though she was Welsh. Sometimes pauses were in the wrong places in the middle of a sentence. Honestly, quite awful. I did like the story but was unable to become lost in it, due to the jarring narration. This is one I would recommend for reading, not listening.

Disappointed
I have read many Fiona McIntosh’s books and was excited to dive into this her latest. Some reviews have compared this book with the Outlander series, this comparison is unfair to both authors. What killed this book for me was the choice of narrator. The story is a romance/adventure and this narrator read it with the enthusiasm and passion of a day in parliament.

A different style for Fiona, but still the true grit and depth of characters i expect from her. Loved it, always feel like I’m saying goodbye to dear friends at the end of your novels. Well done to the Narrator bringing all the different accents to life
