Times are hard at Mrs Perkins’ Pie Shop until they discover a recipe for the most delicious Christmas Pudding ever. Meanwhile, the factory owner’s daughter has lost her diamond necklace. Is the chimney sweep to blame? What is Gradshaw, the sinister factory overseer, really up to? And then someone steals the recipe…
With three double-dealing villains and trouble brewing at the mill, there’s a lot to sort out before Christmas Day.
