On Christmas Eve, Noelle emerges from her office at Simon's Department Store and finds herself locked in for the night while a snowstorm rages outside. Enjoying having the place to herself, Noelle is surprised when a batty old lady shouting "Zooterkins" suddenly appears out of nowhere and claims to be her guardian angel. As the angel and various pairs of designer shoes transport Noelle back through sad holiday memories, she's shown what could have happened if she'd been less fearful. The visions of what could be convince Noelle to join her friend on a trip to Rome and finally stop avoiding her fate, which seems to involve a handsome guy named Jake.
VERDICT A fun and shoe-filled modern take on A Christmas Carol from the best-selling Harbison (One Less Problem Without You) for all readers. [See Prepub Alert, 4/18/16.]
