Christmas Chaos in Halleholm
Autumn has arrived in Halleholm, the picturesque little coastal town in Stockholm’s archipelago. Lovisa Lindegren has never been happier: she’s planning a Christmas surprise at the town’s best bakery and life with Axel is as sweet as her cinnamon buns.
But memories of her sister Cecilia’s cancer treatment and death still haunt Lovisa, and when Axel’s mother Désirée falls ill, serious problems arise between horror-stricken Lovisa and pragmatic oncologist Axel.
As Christmas draws near and the Halleholm rooftops become sprinkled with soft snow, hard questions need answers. What is Lovisa’s best friend Rebecca hiding? Will Halleholm’s popular pensioner Algot be reunited with his family in Australia? And can Lovisa finally put Cecilia’s death behind her and move forward with Axel?
