About this listen

It’s Christmas Eve and Stella Hansen is broke. She is so broke that despite working two jobs, she can’t even afford a present for her husband on their first Christmas as man and wife. But then a mysterious storekeeper at a pawn shop offers Stella an intriguing trade. Stella wants more than anything to buy her husband the Christmas gift of his dreams. But will it come at a terrible price?

While the ending of the story has a good twist , the remainder is almost identical to the book (a gift for Maggie by O.Henry) . I get that It was inspired from that book , but it fells more like the entire book was picked up the book by O.Henry

While the ending has a good twist , although predictable, the rest of the book is copy pasted from another novel
