About this listen

The joyous Christmas novel from the Sunday Times top-ten bestselling author of A Family Recipe and The Beach Hut

'A glorious story full of hope, heartache and Christmas magic' Cathy Bramley

'Wise, insightful, beautiful written and sprinkled with Christmas joy - I adored this book' Milly Johnson

Everyone adores Christmas . . .

Especially Lizzy Kingham. But this year, she is feeling unloved and under-appreciated by her family. The present-buying, decorating and food shopping have all been left to her. So she wonders ... what would happen if she ran away and left them to it?

Lizzy heads to her favourite place: a beach hut on the golden sands of Everdene. There she meets an unlikely collection of new friends, all running away from something. But the spirit of Christmas gets under Lizzy's skin: soon the fairy lights are twinkling and the scent of mulled wine mingles with the sea air.

Back at Pepperpot Cottage, her family are desperate to find her. For Christmas isn't Christmas without Lizzy. Can they track her down in time and convince her she means the world to them, every day of the year?

Bursting with love, hope, forgiveness - and plenty of Christmas cheer - this is the perfect stocking filler!

***Veronica Henry's next beach hut novel, A Wedding at the Beach Hut, is available to pre-order now!***

A very enjoyable and easy read. Full of family love, and friendship. A good story to listen to on a rainy day with a mug of hot chocolate.

Warm cosy read.

Veronica Henry has a talent for storytelling. Great characterisation, beautiful paced plot, and the real feel good factor we all need for Christmas time. She knows how to craft a novel to leave us satisfied but still wanting another chapter anyway. Julia Franklin is an excellent narrator too.
I really enjoyed this book, it’s a family drama that we can all relate to in one way or another and it hits the spot in November and December when we want an absorbing story to relax with. Highly recommended. And there’s a sequel ..... I’m off to listen to that one next.

Just what’s needed in a pandemic

Loved this book and the narrator, a really lovely Christmas listen. Lighthearted but trips along like a loveable reindeer.. very uplifting and comforting. It’s the audible equivalent of a hit chocolate with marshmallows!
