From the Book jacket:
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 fiancé, 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.
