Summary of the book
Thirteen years ago, con artist Patrick "Packy" Coogan Noonan stole $100 million from the investors of his fraudulent company, put $80 million of it into diamonds, and hid the diamonds up a blue spruce tree in Stowe, Vermont. Packy's just been released from prison and is ready to collect his ill-gotten gains; but unfortunately for him, that very same tree has been picked as Rockefeller Center's Christmas tree and is about to be transported to New York. This is the third time this mother and daughter--who each have extraordinarily successful solo careers--have combined their authorial talents in a Christmas-themed novel.
About the Authors
Mother and daughter Clark, each a bestseller in her own right, have produced a singularly slight and unmemorable tale with their third holiday suspense novel (after 2001's He Sees You When You're Sleeping). This time the villainy centers on an 80-foot Vermont spruce earmarked for the traditional Christmas tree lighting at Rockefeller Center.
