Als Kind hat Violet ein zauberhaft handillustriertes Buch geliebt. Jetzt, als alte Frau, wünscht sie sich, es ein letztes Mal in Händen zu halten. Doch ihr Exemplar aus Kindertagen ist seit Jahren verschollen. Ihre Nichte Mirren verspricht dennoch, es bis Weihnachten zu finden. Sie durchforstet staubige Regale und geheime Sammlungen, folgt Spuren von London bis Edinburgh und in ein kleines Bücherdorf. Überall warten neue Hinweise. Und Theo, ein geheimnisvoller attraktiver Antiquar. Gemeinsam suchen sie weiter.

Fast könnte man da den Glauben an die Magie der Weihnacht verlieren... Doch dann verrät ihr schrulliger älterer Chef Carmen einen Herzenswunsch, der vielleicht nie mehr in Erfüllung gehen wird.
