Description
Christmas is just around the corner, and Lisa is set to spend it in Inverness with her aunts, Gertrude and Winnifred, who constantly torment her. However, her fate takes an unexpected turn when, amidst the dull school hours and the familiar grey streets of Edinburgh, Lisa meets shy Prince, an orphan from eSwatini, who is alone in the Scottish capital. Sitting together over a chai latte, the two begin to get to know each other and build a new friendship. This connection will lead Lisa to face a decision that could change their destinies.
The Christmas atmosphere takes on an adventurous and discoverable tone, weaving into a passionate tale that makes us reflect on the sense of belonging we can find in a place—or, as Lisa will confide in her diary, in the hand that accompanies us for a portion of the journey.
A small story at the dawn of Christmas, one that warms the heart and paves the way for other stories told by the children of Casa eSwatini, the foster home where Lisa will stop. Another journey, another large family in which to find one’s own hearth.
