Product Description

From Library Journal

This latest work from the prolific and successful novelist of romantic suspense features a heroine, Karen Nevitt, who begins a new life in Georgetown after her unhappy marriage crumbles. She plans to open an antique-clothing shop with the encouragement of old and new friends. But a series of seemingly unrelated yet terrifying events begins to unfold, and Karen is caught up in a web of deadly suspense on her path to success and love. Michaels has done it again with this entertaining "modern gothic" tale. Virginia A. Doser, Saddleback Coll. Lib., Mission Viejo, Cal.

1.0 out of 5 stars Simply Stupid, May 6 2002
By A Customer
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with the rest of the reviewers.
I found this book ridiculous drivel, forced myself to finish. I really can't find one good thing to say about it, it was just too dumb. I am a great fan of mysteries and romance, this tried to be both and failed in both cases. I'm glad the library is close and I didn't waste money on this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Read and a Little Hard to Understand., Sep 8 2001
By "coolbe1424" (Simi Valley, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This is the first book I have read by "Barbara Michaels." "Shattered Silk" is a good mystery and does not have enough suspense for my liking. A wonderful storyline but the reason I gave it four stars was for the extremely hard to understand plot, it jumped back and forth and began to explain some things I had not heard of. Good Book, but I don't know if I will buy another one from her.

5.0 out of 5 stars It truly is one of her best!, Jul 21 2001
By A. Y. Smittle (Winchester, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After reading the reviews here on Amazon, I was intrigued. I found many similarities between myself and with the author and her characters in the book and outside: The character is a small business owner in the vast DC-Land area. Looking for any area to settle and profit in, mentioning locations and suggestions was amazing. So was the story, by the way! I could so relate to the main character--Ms Michaels sounds like she put a lot of herself and her feelings and interests in this book. The story is about a woman who is dumped by her husband. What to do after being the dutiful wife for so many years? And why was she dumped? She explores the meaning of it all, and rather busily are explorations of friendship and respect, love and deliciously descriptive tales of old clothing. My grammar is horrible, but I hope you get the picture. Its good. Its great! I was very impressed. For those of you exploring similar "quality" Michaels, I suggest Vanish with the Rose, the Wizards Daughter, Buried in the Rain, the Dancing Floor. DO NOT trouble yourself with that new-ish one, the Other Worlds or whatever it is.

Barbara Michaels is at her best in this enjoyable mystery, weaving together all the elements that have made her novels in both pseudonyms so very popular. Read more
