{"product_id":"the-christmas-angel","title":"The Christmas Angel","description":"At the sound of footsteps along the hall Miss Terry looked up from the letter which she was reading for the sixth time. \"Of course I would not see him,\" she said, pursing her lips into a hard line. \"Certainly not!\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA bump on the library door, as from an opposing knee, did duty for a knock.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Bring the box in here, Norah,\" said Miss Terry, holding open the door for her servant, who was gasping under the weight of a packing-case. \"Set it down on the rug by the fire-place. I am going to look it over and burn up the rubbish this evening.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n* * *\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShe glanced once more at the letter in her hand, then with a sniff tossed it upon the fire.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Yes'm,\" said Norah, as she set down the box with a thump. She stooped once more to pick up something which had fallen out when the cover was jarred open. It was a pink papier-mâché angel, such as are often hung from the top of Christmas trees as a crowning symbol. Norah stood holding it between thumb and finger, staring amazedly. Who would think to find such a bit of frivolity in the house of Miss Terry!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHer mistress looked up from the fire, where the bit of writing was writhing painfully, and caught the expression of Norah's face.","brand":"Boekie.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56101021712649,"sku":null,"price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/3685\/0953\/files\/The-Christmas-Angel-boek-cover-9786257959247.jpg?v=1781143136","url":"https:\/\/boekie.nl\/products\/the-christmas-angel","provider":"Boekie.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
