Publisher Description
On Christmas Eve, a traveler finds himself waiting out a snowstorm at the Holly Tree Inn. While passing the hours waiting for the weather to pass so his coach can continue its journey, the warm hearth of the inn brings his mind to roam to pass recollections, both happy and grave.

However, the delay at the inn is about to bring him a miraculous discovery.

About the Authors
Charles Dickens (1812–1870) was born in Landport, Portsmouth, England, the second of eight children in a family continually plagued by debt. A legacy brought release from the nightmare of debtors’ prison and child labor and afforded him a few years of formal schooling. He worked as an attorney’s clerk and newspaper reporter until his early writings brought him the amazing success that was to be his for the remainder of his life. He was the most popular English novelist of the Victorian era, and he remains popular, responsible for some of English literature’s most iconic characters.
Barry M. Putt, Jr. is a playwright and writer. He received a degree in Dramatic Writing from NYU. Barry is a member of the Dramatists Guild of America, the American Renaissance Theater Company, and Passage Theatre’s Playwrights Lab
