Roman
Winter 1895: when her father dies unexpectedly, it looks as if nineteen-year-old Anna Haertel is about to lose everything. The glass-blowing factory in the Swabian Forest is sold, and Anna has to work in a factory in a neighbouring village. In the evenings, she makes extra money to support her family by handcrafting little glass angels, which she then places in matchboxes and sells. One day, Anna receives an invitation from the Queen of England: word of Anna’s exceptional craftsmanship has reached Queen Victoria, who wants her to visit London. Anna sets out on this exciting journey only to have her angels stolen during the crossing. While trying to track down her missing angels, Anna learns a great deal about English Christmas traditions and falls in love – not just with the beautiful country and its customs, but also with her traveling companion, the mysterious Tom. Her life takes another unexpected turn when she finally has an audience with the Queen: will she ever be able to return to her family in Swabia?
