The Mistletoe Seller

Written by Dilly Court

Narrated by Annie Aldington

The heartwarming historical novel from Sunday Times bestseller, Dilly Court

It’s Christmas Eve. Flurries of snow fall on the cobbled streets of Whitechapel and an abandoned baby, swaddled in a blanket, is found on a doorstep in Angel Lane . . .

Named after the street on which she was found, Angel Winter was blessed to be taken from the harsh streets into a loving home. But fate deals a cruel blow and she’s torn from the only family she has ever known, and thrown onto the cobbles of Covent Garden to fend for herself.

With winter closing in, Angel scratches a living selling mistletoe to the City gentlemen who pass through the market, hoping they will take pity on her as she shivers in the snow. The only way she can survive is to make her own luck. She will never sell the one treasure that could feed her for a month, the gold and ruby ring that was hidden in her swaddling – it could hold the key to the secrets of her past . . .

Reviews for The Mistletoe Seller

[marthajeanne · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Dilly Court's plots are rather unlikely. In this case, Angel goes from rags to riches and back several times. However, the writing is good, and it's all good fun.
