Description
A beautiful collection of seasonal stories inspired by the classic Christmas carol, from the Sunday Times No. 1 Bestselling Author
'Uplifting, poignant and astutely observed, this felt like being whirled away into a Regency ball' Naomi Kelsey
As the Viscount's famous Twelfth Night Ball draws closer, many of the villagers of Merrywake have a story to tell - we meet a lovelorn vicar and kindly maid reunited after a misunderstanding, three sisters vying for the hand of a dastardly duke, two servants hiding a dangerous secret and a solider making his way home, unsure of the welcome he might receive. As their tales braid together, we see life and love in the village from belowstairs to high society.
Reimagining each of the traditional carol's gifts, The Twelve Days of Christmas is a collection of festive tales filled with seasonal cheer and heart-warming characters. Will the challenges and mysteries that the Viscount's guests encounter be resolved by the night of the ball?

'A festive delight, as warming as mulled wine by a crackling fire' Elodie Harper
'Witty, delightful and hugely satisfying' Kate Griffin
'Simply sublime festive fiction' AJ West
'Clever, funny and heartfelt. . . it's the perfect comfort read. Fans of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer will love it' Theresa Howes
'Jane Austen meets Downton Abbey. . . romance, humour, poignancy, and a historical escape' Rachel Louise Driscoll

Susan Stokes‑Chapman legt mit "The Twelve Days of Christmas" eine Sammlung von zwölf miteinander verflochtenen Kurzgeschichten vor, inspiriert vom bekannten Weihnachtslied und angesiedelt im Regency‑England. Die Geschichten spielen im Dorf Merrywake und kulminieren im festlichen Twelfth‑Night‑Ball des Viscounts — ein klassisches Setting, das bewusst an Austen und Heyer erinnert.
