Whittlecombe has fallen eerily silent.
Snow descends as one by one the residents sink into a deep and dreamless sleep.
Except for one.
Ever the insomniac, Alfhild Daemonne recognises a curse when she sees one.
The villagers are in grave danger. But who has cursed Whittlecombe and why? Can our Alfie find out and save her friends in the village?
Will Alf ever manage to have a crisis free and merry Christmas?
Will anybody wake up in time to prepare her figgy pudding?
Maybe our favourite witch will be too busy to notice …
Because while mortals sleep, one witch keeps
A watch of wondering love.
