Hollys Christmas Secret

Once upon a Cornish Christmas... It's almost Christmas at the Pencradoc estate in Cornwall which means that, as usual, tea room owner Sorcha Davies is baking up a festive storm. And this year Sorcha is hoping her mince pies will be going down a treat at 'The Spirit of Christmas Past' exhibition being organised at the house by new local antiques dealer, Locryn Dyer. But as Locryn and Sorcha spend more time together, they begin to uncover a very special story of Christmas past that played out at Pencradoc more than a century before, involving a certain 'Lady' Holly Sawyer, a festive dinner party and a magical secret encounter with a handsome author... AUTHOR: irsty is from the North East of England and won the English Heritage/Belsay Hall National Creative Writing competition in 2009 with the ghostly tale 'Enchantment'. Her timeslip novel, 'Some Veil Did Fall', a paranormal romance set in Whitby, was published by Choc Lit in Autumn 2014. This was followed by another Choc Lit timeslip, 'The Girl in the Painting' in February 2016. 'The Girl in the Photograph', published in March 2017, completes the Rossetti Mysteries series. The experience of signing 'Some Veil Did Fall' in a quirky bookshop in the midst of Goth Weekend in Whitby, dressed as a recently undead person was one of the highlights of her writing career so far!
