A Christmas Hope

A consignment shop owner tries to track down a treasure with special meaning in this “cozy small-town Christmas story” (Library Journal).   Nora Connors Rainer has returned to her hometown, Linden Corners, to tend to her elderly but spunky mother—and to nurse a broken heart. To keep busy, Nora opens A Doll’s Attic, a consignment shop where locals can unload their unwanted heirlooms—or search for new treasures. Then, eighty-five-year-old Thomas Van Diver hands Nora her first track down a rare vintage item that holds powerful childhood memories of his father and their very last Christmas together.   Soon, with the help of new friend Brian Duncan, and his irrepressible young charge, Janey, they’ll uncover the mysteries of Christmas past—and create a Christmas present that just might restore their hope, and fulfill everyone’s deepest wishes . . .
