About this book
"Shattered Silk" (1986) is one of her standalone novels, and spans 320 pages. It shares its Georgetown house and a few recurring minor characters with Ammie, Come Home and Stitches in Time, though the three aren't linked by plot. It's one of the standalone gothic suspense novels Barbara Michaels wrote under that pen name -- the quieter, more unsettling counterpart to the Amelia Peabody and Vicky Bliss books she wrote as Elizabeth Peters -- built around an old house, family secrets, and a supernatural presence the story never quite confirms or denies.
