Of Thread and Almonds

Set in 90s London, this is the story of love unexpectedly found in the heart of a museum. Sullivan thoughtful cloakroom attendant, skilled with a needle and thread, whose immaculate routine is turned upside down by the appearance of charismatic PhD scholar Mandel, there to carry out research in the library. Despite an immediate and potent chemistry between them, neither seems brave enough to make a move. But will Sullivan following his desires mean taking drastic measures?
