A Christmas Treasury.
Set in Australia and around the world, this delightful Christmas treasury of fourteen special stories bring us closer to the families, friends, lovers and the lonely of Binchy's imaginations, drawing us into their lives with her usual wisdom and generosity in such tales as:
- 'Travelling Hopefully': Aboard a plane bound for Australia, two strangers find themselves sharing their fears and laughing each other into courage.
- 'The Christmas Barramundi': For Nick and Janet, meeting at the Sydney Fish Markets was a perfect introduction . . . what could go wrong?
- 'The Ten Snaps Of Christmas': Fourteen-year-old Orla decides to record Christmas Day with her new Polaroid camera, but no one is prepared for what she sees, and
- 'This Year It Will Be Different': Ethel is assured by her family that this year the usual massive Christmas preparations won't be left up to her, that this year will be different.
