The Sunday Times bestseller! 'There's nothing quite like a Karen Swan novel to get you in the
festive mood - Seasonal escapism at its best' - Woman & Home Snowed in for the holidays old
truths rise to the surface. Christmas by Candlelight is a cosy Christmas story from Karen Swan
bestselling author of The Stolen Hours . It's three days before Christmas and starting to
snow when high-flier Libby and her new boyfriend reluctantly attend her university reunion.
Hosted by Archie Templeton - the heartbreaker of their group - at his grand family estate in
Yorkshire the night is a great success until they go to leave: the road is now blocked with
snow. At first being snowed in together is fun. But as hours pass everyone grows restless.
Then the power goes out . . . Hunkered down together by candlelight they reminisce about old
times - and tensions soon start to rise. Secrets from the past begin to unravel and Libby is
confronted with a truth she has long tried to deny. 'You know that the festive season is well
and truly here when a Karen Swan Christmas cracker appears . . . Sprinkled throughout with
Swan's trademark twists and turns insight cosy charm and eye for comedy this is the perfect
warm-up for the Christmas holiday' - Yorkshire Post 'With well-drawn characters and plenty of
romance and drama this page-turner will leave you with a warm festive glow' - The Mirror
