Since the death of her husband, Anne Blakhall has carried on their shared business as a tailor and embroiderer in the heart of London. Rather than remarry as prosperous widows usually do, she has taken on a lover - Daved Weir, a foreign merchant who must conceal the fact he is a Jew so long as he is in England, or face deadly peril.

She is also charged with secretly recovering gold the duke sent out of England shortly before his death. Attempting to help her cousin, she encounters Anne and Daved.
