FL 'Before Elfrida Phipps left London for good, and moved to the country, she made a trip to battersea Dogs Home, and returned with a canine companion.'

When she leaves London for the pretty Hampshire village that she describes as 'my geriatric bolt-hole', Elfrida Phipps quickly feels at home. She has a tiny cottage, her faithful dog Horace and the friendship of the neighbouring Blundells - particularly Oscar - to ensure that her days include companionship as well as independence.

But an unforeseen tragedy upsets Elfrida' tranquility. She takes refuge in a rambling house in Scotland, which becomes a magnet for various waifs and strays. It sounds like a recip for disaster. But somehow the group becomes greater than the sum of its ill-assorted parts and Elfrida finds herself at the centre of a very magical Christmas.

Donated by a non-bookcrossing friend in Kent.
