Fiction Family Life
Only the most extraordinary circumstances can reunite
the Birch family for the holidays… It's Christmas, and for the first time in years the entire
Birch family will be under one roof. Even Emma and Andrew's
elder daughter—who is usually off saving the world—will be
joining them at Weyfield Hall. But Olivia, a doctor, is only
coming home because she has to. She's just returned from
treating an epidemic abroad and has been told she must stay
in quarantine for a week…and so too should her family. For the next seven days, the Birches are locked down, cut
off from the rest of humanity, and forced into each other's
orbits. Younger, unabashedly frivolous daughter Phoebe is
fixated on her upcoming wedding, while Olivia deals with the
culture shock of first-world problems. As Andrew sequesters himself in his study writing scathing
restaurant reviews and remembering his glory days as a war
correspondent, Emma hides a secret that will turn the whole
family upside down. In close proximity, not much can stay hidden for long, and
as revelations and long-held tensions come to light, nothing
is more shocking than the unexpected guest who's about to
arrive…
