On the morning of the 23rd of December, 11 year old Summer Rust and her family make their way across a storm-tossed sea to a remote island off the coast of the UK to visit Summer’s grandfather, Henry Rust. Tensions amongst the family members quickly escalate into full blown arguments. The tensions reach their boiling point when Summer learns that her grandfather is fatally ill and has only a few days to live.
Having lost her faith in the spirit of Christmas, Summer escapes to the barn, where she finds herself face to face with a talking piglet who claims to be the spellbound Santa Claus. Determined to save her grandfather’s life and guided by the mysterious talking dog Garm, Summer sets out on a journey to the mystical Dreamland, where she hopes to restore Santa’s powers and ask him to save her grandfather.
On their way, Summer and Garm encounter many strange creatures. Some are friendly like the demon Krampus or the teleporting gnome Tomte, some vicious like the child-eating giantess Gryla with her 13 sons, the Yule Lads, and their ferocious pet, the Yule Cat.
Making her way deeper into these strange lands, Summer begins to understand that this merry adventure will change her understanding of the true nature of the Spirit of Christmas, forever.
