Peter doesn't have a clue what to get for his teenage daughter Chloe—he worries that he really doesn't know her at all.

Chloe wants to buy something special for her grandmother Irene, her confidente and guiding light, who lives alone on the other side of town.

Irene doesn't get out much these days, but she'd really like to find the right gift for Alina, who's so much more than a carer, really.

Loved the interconnected story

This story kept me company on my Christmas visit to my parents and I really enjoyed the interwoven stories, how each person came to their gift conclusion and the alternative perspectives on each other’s lives.
