The Spider and the Lily
This page-turning gothic mystery sees Esther, a young painter, uncover the hidden story behind a famous Arthurian legend.
A legend. An obsession. A secret that wonât stay buried.
When Esther inherits an old tapestry from her father, she doesnât think much of it at first. It seems to tell a strangely altered version of the Arthurian tales she loves so well. Then one night she accidentally knocks a candle onto the fabric and it doesnât burn at all. Even more startlingly, the floral decoration around its border starts to change and bloom.
Esther embarks on a quest to understand the tapestryâs mysteries. But then she starts to receive coded notes, written in the language of flowers, which threaten her and indicate there is someone else out there with an interest in the tapestry, someone with far more nefarious plans.
