'Instantly likeable with wonderful characters who draw you in.'
Lou Fellingham, singer and songwriter
The march towards the end of the year sees Hope Hall once again buzzing
with activity.The lead up to the Harvest Festival sees a stray dog
causing a nuisance, and tensions rise between two old schoolmates.
The drama only increases as Christmas approaches, and the panto
rehearsals featuring the jocular "Can't Sing Singers" get into full
swing. But the hustle and bustle of the drama in the community stems
from the deeper personal stories. Loneliness, loss, and hurt impact the
lives of many of the local residents. But where there is community,
there is friendship, companionship, love, and most of all, hope.
Christmas at Hope Hall is the final book in a delightful trilogy centred
on a Victorian church hall, the like of which can be found at the heart
of so many towns across England. This wonderful finale to the series
(which includes the sound of wedding bells!) is full of friends and
neighbours with stories that will have you giggling one minute, and
dabbing your eyes the next.
