A secret romance was just the start of the story…

Tucked into a crook of the Norfolk coast lies Nelson’s Bar – an idyllic village where time seems to stand still. Maddy Cracey has called this beautiful spot home all her life, as had her husband Adey – until an epic row sent him storming out into a blizzard, with no sign of him since that fateful night.

Six years on, and Maddy’s life in the village has settled into a gentle pattern with her young daughter and Great Aunt Ruthie. However, when handsome stranger Raff turns up with a handful of long-forgotten love letters, their quiet life is upended as family secrets from the past are unearthed.

As Raff and Maddy get to know each other, they grow closer and a love story of their own seems inevitable. But when Maddy receives a mysterious message, she can’t help but wonder whether her own past is as distant as she’d thought it was…

The festive new novel about love, family and the power of words from Sunday Times bestseller Sue Moorcroft, perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan and Phillipa Ashley.

Jane knows how very lucky she is not to be hungry and desperate this Christmas. She tries to use her luck to help others, but everything is changing, and whether she likes it or not, she is at the very centre of those changes.

Jane has been working for the Berringford Foundation for a long time now. She does good work, and she is passionate about helping people who don’t have enough to eat at Christmas, or on any other day of the year.

But some items have gone missing from wealthy people’s houses, and those same wealthy people appear on a list of potential patrons the charity has approached. Trouble is knocking, and soon everybody’s going to be swept into its path.

Alvin has been tasked with the job of investigating the robberies. It’s not his dream assignment, but he has no choice. He does it begrudgingly up until the moment he meets Jane, at which point he finds an enthusiasm he’d long forgotten.

With Winter in full swing, and Christmas only weeks away, Jane just wants to see to it that everybody is looked after, while Alvin is struggling with the morality of what he must do.

Events, along with their emotions, are spiralling out of their control.

The Christmas Thief is the story of two people brought together by fate, each with their own troubles, worries and secrets. Is this the greatest love either of them will ever know, or should they never have crossed paths at all?

By the time Christmas arrives, neither of them will have any doubt.
