New Release 
Weight In Gold

 If you’re searching for a meaningful book to enjoy this winter or a thoughtful gift for someone who appreciates heartfelt stories, Weight In Gold has already found its place among many Winter Reads favourites for 2026. 


The story emerges from quiet, chilling moments, profound reflection, and characters we only seem to encounter in Victorian Winter tales during long, dark nights. However, be warned: this is not a meek and mild version of A Christmas Carol to share with children by the fireside. The characters are raw and honest, portraying the true essence of salt-of-the-earth British people living in a world inspired by dark, actual events dating back to 1822 in a real town disguised under the fictional name of Merifield.
