What to expect
In a thrilling and poignant sequel to the world’s most beloved Christmas tale of love and redemption, Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, a reformed Ebenezer Scrooge finds that his newfound mental and spiritual peace of mind cannot solve his remaining enduring problem: loneliness. Scrooge knows a pair of adopted kittens playfully named Julius and Caesar cannot make up for the love of a woman. By sheer coincidence, Scrooge discovers his estranged former fiancée Allyce Bainbridge is a widow whose husband died valiantly while serving with Her Majesty’s Coldstream Guards in the Crimean War; however, Scrooge’s socially awkward attempts to regain her trust are bitterly rebuffed. It takes another visit from the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, to tell Scrooge that only “The Ghost of Christmas Love” can unlock the chains of resentment binding Allyce’s twice-broken heart. Marley further compounds Scrooge’s dilemma by enigmatically telling him that this “Ghost of Christmas Love” will only manifest to Allyce if Scrooge is willing to make a sacrifice that all his wealth and gold cannot buy. Scrooge sets out to right the wrong from his past nagging at his soul breaking Allyce’s heart. He enlists the unlikely but sincere help of Florence Nightingale and a cast of endearing characters, not all of whom are what they seem to be, in a satisfying story that answers the question: What happened to Ebenezer Scrooge after his Christmas Eve visit from the ghosts and his change of heart?
“The prose is simple yet wonderfully written, and the narrative is well-plotted and smooth. Rich themes of faith, love, and sacrifice permeate the novel, which culminates in a fulfilling and feel-good finale.”—Kirkus Reviews
