We are delighted to announce the acquisition of A Mandeville Christmas, a heart-warming festive novella by bestselling author Callie Langridge. This enchanting addition to the popular Mandeville Mystery series will be available in ebook and paperback formats from October 2025.
A Mandeville Christmas centres around twenty-eight-year-old Freya Harris, who is struggling with grief following her beloved grandmother’s death. As she faces her final Christmas in her childhood home before it’s sold, Freya reluctantly accepts a party catering commission at nearby manor Hill House. There, she encounters house manager Callum Miller and his dog Jasper, but also experiences something inexplicable – time slips that connect her a young woman from the Regency era who is also mourning a loved one. Through these mysterious encounters, Freya discovers not only the truth about the girl’s legacy but also a chance at her own future happiness.
Callie Langridge said:
“I adore spending time with the Mandevilles and love Christmas, so the chance to delve into a very different festive season at Hill House is sheer joy. Working with Kathryn and the whole Storm team is equally joyful and I can’t wait to get this next instalment in the history of the Mandevilles into the hands of readers.”
Kathryn Taussig said:
“I’m so thrilled to be publishing this Christmas novella, which will deliver on all the historical intrigue and emotional depth that readers have come to expect from A Time to Change and the other books in Callie’s fabulous series. What an absolutely perfect present for the holiday season!”
