Gin Shack on the Beach

Gingle bells, gingle bells, gingle all the way… Olive Turner might have lived through eighty-four Christmases, but she'll never get bored of her favourite time of year. And this one's set to be extra-special. It's the Gin Shack's first Christmas – and there's a gin-themed weekend and a cocktail competition on the cards! But, beneath the dazzle of fairy lights and the delicious scent of mince-pies, Olive smells a rat. From trespassers in her beloved beach hut to a very unfunny joke played on her friends, it seems that someone is missing a dose of good cheer. Olive knows she's getting on a bit – but is she really imagining that someone in the little seaside town is out to steal Christmas? More importantly, can she create the perfect gin cocktail before Christmas Eve – in time to save the day? ‘Olive is back and better than ever, putting the gingle into Christmas!' – Rachel Dove ‘I absolutely loved this fun festive read, packed full of Christmas cocktails. Delicious!' Heidi Swain ‘Full of festive fizz…Olive's return is a real tonic!' Fay Keenan
