And now for a little festive number :)
A heartwarming festive tale of redemption and cheer, The Christmas Hirelings is the story of a lonely widower who reluctantly invites a group of children to his manor for Christmas. It showcases the benefits of opening your doors and hearts during the holiday season.
About the Book
First published in 1893, The Christmas Hirelings is a delightful short tale of compassion and redemption. With his sole surviving daughter Sybil estranged, and his wife passed away, there is a deficit of Christmas cheer in the near-vacant country mansion of Sir John Penlyon. In an attempt to improve the festive mood, Sir John’s good friend Mr Danby suggests that three children be ‘hired’ over the Christmas period in the hope of brightening the mood. After overcoming his initial reluctance, Sir John soon opens the doors of Penlyon Castle to Lassie, Laddie and little Moppet. Their arrival does more than signal the coming of Christmas however, as Sir John finds himself re-evaluating his past actions.

You are so full of delightful surprises, Merida769.
Braddon always seems to me an author who forces you to accept the 19th century on its own terms;- like Douglas Jerrold, or Sabine Baring Gould.
I don’t know this one, but I shall keep it by me until I have a few slices of brawn, a saucerful of snapdragons, and bumper of rum punch to hand - then really get into the swing of the naughty 90s.

I haven’t read this one. I look forward to listening to it. I love your uploads. Thank you. :)

To be fair you have Audible to thank for this one popping up in my uploads, as this is on as a freebie for members just now!
I haven’t read this one myself either.
Lady Audley’s Secret was my last read by Braddon I think.
@pryderi - ding dong merrily indeed, quite the picture you’ve created there!
