“I’ll find the plan to show them,” she called. While he waited, he opened the bag of quilts. He was fingering the Scottish one when she came back; they looked at it carefully. The quilt was still in good condition at the corners and edges, and Kim remarked that they could get a good idea of what the original was like from that.

“I wish we knew when it came to this country,” she said. “I can almost hear the bagpipes play.” Rob gave her a strange look. “What?” she asked. “What?”

“You’ll think I’m going soft in the head but when I opened the bag . . . ” He paused. “I thought I heard a snippet of bagpipe music.”

“That shop has really gotten to both of us. Let’s go to Chestnut Hall and tell them about it.”

True to form, and to Rob’s delight, Evan was wielding utensils at the huge range and delicious smells wafted everywhere. He wandered over to the stove; Evan gave him the job of cutting the rolls for the burgers.

“Oh boy,” Rob said, taking the knife. “Burgers with homemade chutney.” Kim shook her head and showed her sister the plan that Rob had given her the day before. They rolled it out on the table and weighted it down. Evan left the stove and came to look over their shoulders.

“Man, that is a work of art,” he called to Rob. “Is it all your own work?” When Rob said that it was, Evan went back over and slapped him on the back. “Fancy Rob the Wrecker being an artist.”

“You never said why he was called Rob the Wrecker,” Jazz said, and Rob moaned out loud. Evan laughed.

“If you needed anything demolished, Rob was your man. Trouble is, he demolished things like tents that had just been erected.”

“Well he went into heavy machinery, so I guess demolition was his thing,” Jazz answered, and Rob protested that you had to be very careful with heavy machines. Evan went to the door separating his half of the house from his brother’s, and called that there were burgers if anyone wanted one. Dex and Carly appeared as if by magic, along with the bundle of long, brown hair and slobber that was Mungo the rescue dog. Carly shrieked when she saw Kim and came to give her a hug.

The group settled comfortably into finishing the homemade burgers, and Kim said that they had been to the shop that Jenny had found.

“And was it weird?” Jazz asked. Both Rob and Kim nodded.

“In the window, it looked ancient and dusty, but inside it was modern and light. The woman inside was called Miranda, and seemed to think that fate had brought me to find this particular quilt." Kim opened the holdall and drew out the quilts. “Four of these are normal, patchwork quilts from this era. They need a bit of work but will make up okay. But this one—” She took out the Celtic knot quilt and told them what Miranda had said.
