About this Event
Join us for an evening in conversation with Susan Stokes-Chapman to celebrate her new book, The Twelve Days of Christmas, complete with mince pies, mulled wine, and gift-wrapping for the perfect present this holiday season!
The Twelve Days of Christmas is a beautiful collection of seasonal stories inspired by the classic Christmas carol, from the bestselling author of Pandora.
The air glitters with hope as the snowy village of Merrywake celebrates the Christmas season after the tumult of the Napoleonic Wars.
As the Viscount's famous Twelfth Night Ball draws closer, many of the villagers have a story to tell - we meet a lovelorn vicar and kindly maid reunited after a misunderstanding, three sisteres vying for the hand of a fastardly duke, two servants hiding a dangerous secret and a soldier making his way home, unsure of the welcome he might receive. As their tales braid together, we see life and love in the village from belowstairs to high society.
Reimagining each of the traditional carol's gifts, The Twelve Days of Christmas is a collection of festive tales filled with seasonal cheer and heart-warming characters. Will the challenges and mysteries that the Viscount's guests encounter be resolved by the night of the ball?
Susan Stokes-Chapman is a bestselling author of historical fiction, known for writing specifically in the Georgian era and marrying meticulous research with rich lyrical prose. Her debut novel Pandora was an instant #1 Sunday times bestseller and has been translated into 16 languages.
