Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. 'Gabriel now stood before a barren, scorched black land and viewed the desolation that lay before him like a scene from hell. All across the gorge of furrowed mud, trenches twisted and curled like some never ending serpent, and within these tracks of ruin, dirt covered soldiers awaited the coming of man's terrifying rage'. When the ghost of Ebenezer Scrooge appears to Gabriel Shivers, he blames the stress of his job at the war office and the newspaper boys for calling out doomed headlines. But when the spirit of the future follows up with shadows of a terrible crime against children, Gabriel must leave the loneliness and boredom of his present life, and grasp hold of a great and extraordinary adventure. Following a mysterious note slipped under Gabriel's door, and for reasons yet to be written, he must find an old gentleman who goes by the name of Tiny Tim. A chance encounter with a young suffragette named Charlotte leads him to her eccentric and colourful grandfather, Tiny Tim. Gabriel must balance the pain of the coming danger with his growing loyalty to Tim and his ever awakening love for Charlotte. With Christmas 1914 fast approaching, the trio must hurry to unmask a malicious plot being hatched by a secret society working for German propagandists, before they can bear witness to a Christmas they will never forget.
