"Get out of the house. Get out while you can."
Harriet Peters is both grief-stricken and terrified, not only has her best friend succombed to a violet death, but others in her family have died in exactly the same manner. It's perplexing, to say the least. This is a family who has shown her nothing but kindness over the brief years of their acquaintance; taking her in and helping Harriet to establish her own millinery business; the Robinsons are hard workers and a God-fearing family, but something has gone terriby awry.
"Without evidence you can't get the warrant, but without the warrant, we can't get the evidence."
Dr. Michael Wheaton is beside himself with worry about the lovely hat shop owner. Harriet engaged his services when Lizzie Robinson was on her death bed, and he has every reason to suspect that something nefarious is going on within the household. He can't help but admire Harriet for her fierce dedication to her friends, but how can he find answers when no one will allow him entrance into the house?
"The Green Dress" is a tribute to this entire series; exposing heinous historical crimes, but threading them together with a tender dose of spiritual depth and romance along each seam.
