Dive into a Christmas story that will show you that there are always more extravagant families than yours. Miss Bobbin, a renowned fox hunter, organizes the Christmas party at her home. The guest list includes her rebellious daughter, Philadelphia, and her pretentious suitor, two children with a fascination for obituaries, and a dejected writer. The arrival of Amabelle Fortescue and the accommodation in a rustic cabin unleash a series of love entanglements and mischief, all imbued with the Christmas spirit. A novel that will make you laugh and reflect on the peculiarities of family life.
