Debbie Young

Christmas with Sophie Sayers (Tales from Wendlebury Barrow) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A warm and witty collection of gentle stories of Cotswold life, set in Wendlebury Barrow, the village featured in the bestselling Sophie Sayers Cozy Mystery series. But you won't find any murder mysteries or crazy crimes in these stories - just uplifting, short festive tales, full of favourite characters from the Sophie Sayers novels, and generously sprinkled with Debbie Young's characteristic humour. Join Sophie Sayers, her friends and neighbours, as they share village Christmas traditions, from Christmas shopping in the Hector's House bookshop to carol-singing on the village green to ringing in the New Year in the ancient bell tower of the parish church of St Bride. There's also the story from a much earlier Christmas, of Sophie's late Great Auntie May, from whom Sophie inherited her cottage. For the first time, you can read about May's late-in-life romantic reunion with her childhood sweetheart, Joshua, now Sophie's elderly next-door-neighbour. Look out for a guest appearance by Gemma Lamb, Joe Spryke and the girls of nearby St Bride's School, home to Debbie Young's popular Gemma Lamb Cozy Mystery series.

The perfect gift-to-self to divert and relax you as you prepare for your own Christmas celebrations.

If you enjoy this book, you'll love the third Sophie Sayers Cozy Mystery, Murder in the Manger, for a novel-length Christmas story, and the second Gemma Lamb Cozy Mystery, Sinister Stranger at St Bride's, set in the run-up to the quirky boarding school's Christmas Fair.

Autorenporträt

I write warm, witty, feel-good contemporary fiction inspired by life in the English village where I have lived for nearly thirty years. My work has been shortlisted for the UK Bookbrunch Selfies Awards 2020, given for the best independently-published fiction in the UK. My Sophie Sayers Village Mystery series begins with Best Murder in Show and, when complete, will run the course of a calendar year in the life of a classic English Cotswold village. The sixth, Murder Your Darlings, was published in the spring of 2020, and I am now writing the final book in the series, Murder, Lost and Found. A bonus eighth book is also in the pipeline! I'm also writing a new romantic comedy mystery series set in the staffroom of an English girls' boarding school. St Bride's. The first book, Secrets at St Bride's, was published in August 2019, and the second, Stranger at St Bride's, was published in July 2020. There will be six books in this series following the course of an academic year. If you'd like me to let you know when I'm about to publish a new book, why not join my free Readers' Club? You'll find details on my author website. You'll also receive a free short ebook, The Pride of Peacocks, featuring Sophie Sayers and friends and introducing St Bride's School for Girls.
