About this listen

Christmas at Hedgelord Garden Centre should be simple—trees, tinsel, and a grotto full of jolly Santas. But when one of those Santas goes rogue and films an incriminating adult movie, with Hedgelord’s grotto as the backdrop, sales manager Charlotte Mitchell finds herself in the middle of a festive disaster.

The only way to save Hedgelord’s reputation is to track down the wayward Santa and secure the footage before it’s released. Unfortunately, she’s not the only one on the case — Jack Hartigan, her infuriatingly charming rival from Bloomers garden centre, is also in pursuit. Worse still, Santa has already fled to Lapland.

With time running out and disaster closing in, Charlotte abandons her responsibilities and embarks on a chaotic, high-stakes chase across Europe by sea, rail, and air — all while stuck with Jack at her side.

Runaway Santa delivers a tale of gangsters, gunmen, and unexpected corpses.

With Hedgelord’s future hanging by a thread, can Charlotte outrun disaster, outwit her enemies, and save Christmas?
