El tiempo entre costuras

The young dressmaker Sira Quiroga leaves Madrid in the months prior to the uprising, dragged by runaway love for a man. Together they settle in Tangier, a worldly, exotic and vibrant city where everything unthinkable can come true. Even betrayal and abandonment. Alone and burdened by external debts, Sira moved to Tetouan, the capital of the Spanish Protectorate in Morocco. With unspeakable tricks and aided by friends of dubious reputation, she forges a new identity and manages to launch a select atelier in which she caters to clients from remote origins and unsuspected presents. Written in lavish prose, Time Between Seams is a gripping adventure in which haute couture workshops, the glamor of grand hotels, political conspiracies, and the dark missions of the secret services merge with loyalty to those to whom we want and with the irrepressible power of love.
