Carmen has always worked in her local department store. So when the building closes its doors for good she is more than a little lost. When her sister Sofia mentions an opportunity in Edinburgh - a little bookshop the spare room in her house - Carmen is reluctant. But short on options she soon finds herself pulling into the city just a month before Christmas. What Sofia didn't say is that the shop is on its last legs and that if Carmen can't help turn things around before Christmas the owner will be forced to sell. Privately Sofia is sure it will take more than a miracle to save the store but maybe this Christmas Carmen might surprise them all. . .
