A Mackenzie Family Christmas: The Perfect Gift

Ian Mackenzie and his family gathers for Christmas and Hogmanay in the Mackenzie's Highland castle. In the chaos of preparation, one of Ian's Ming bowls gets broken, and the family scrambles to save the day. Daniel busily runs a betting ring for everything from the hour Lady Eleanor's baby will arrive, to whether Mac's former-pugilist valet can win a boxing match, to who will be the first of the many guests to be caught under the mistletoe. Ian begins a new obsession, and Beth fears that the loss of one of his precious bowls has made him withdraw once more into his private world.
