Mary Higgins Clark, America's Queen of Suspense, and her daughter,
bestselling mystery writer Carol Higgins Clark, have again joined
forces to create a suspenseful and humorous holiday tale.
Alvirah Meehan, the lottery winner turned amateur sleuth, teams
up with private investigator Regan Reilly to solve another
Christmas mystery. In "Deck the Halls, " they rescued Regan's
kidnapped father. This time they get in the middle of a case
involving a beautiful eighty-foot blue spruce that has been chosen
to spend the holidays as Rockefeller Center's famous Christmas
tree. The folks who picked the tree don't have a clue that attached
to one of its branches is a flask chock-full of priceless diamonds
that Packy Noonan, a scam artist just released from prison, had
hidden there over twelve years ago.
An excited Packy breaks his parole and heads to Stowe, Vermont,
to reclaim his loot. Once there, he is horrified to discover that
his special tree will be heading to New York City the next morning.
With a bumbling crew consisting of Jo-Jo, Benny, and an
unsuccessful poet, Milo, he knows he has to act fast.
What Packy does not know is that Alvirah and Regan are on a
weekend trip to Stowe with Alvirah's husband, Willy; Regan's
fiance, Jack; Regan's parents, Luke and Nora; and Alvirah's friend
Opal, a lottery winner who lost all her winnings in Packy's scam.
On Monday morning when they're supposed to head home, they learn
that the tree is missing, Packy Noonan may be in the vicinity, and
Opal has disappeared.
From two of America's beloved storytellers, "The Christmas
Thief" is filled with suspense, comic characters, and holiday
cheer, and is sure to delight its readers.
