About this series

The white, stark lengthy fingers emerging from giant sleeves, now twisted and pulled at this rod, extending it to a size not less than the height of the spectral form itself, which held the same within a bony, clenched grasp.

Christmas 1848, the City of York, England. Capus Munion is the accounts clerk to an old family-firm of auctioneers, being carefully plundered by its artful directors. The year's end brings unprecedented weather in the form of recurrent snowfalls and frightening electrical storms; to become a winter siege that pushes the ancient city's people to their limit. But now there is something strange about the white-haired gentleman, his knowledge, his wisdom; that is both unearthly and provocative. A humble clerk who finds the good and the bad of those that cross his path, only to exercise the final words of truth and justice...

In a web spun by so many unique and often humorous characters, is a ghostly Dickensian work and a tribute to 'A Christmas Carol' and a must for those who enjoy the traditionally spoken tale. Complete with rich, classically illustrated pen drawings styled of the period.
