In Silent Night， America s most beloved writer of suspense has crafted a very special story about the power of love， and of a child s courage and faith.When her husband was diagnosed with leukemia， Catherine Dornan and their two young sons accompanied him to New York， during the Christmas season， for a life-saving operation.Hoping to divert the boys from worry about their father， and to temper her own near despair， on Christmas Eve Catherine takes the boys to see Rockefeller Center s famous Christmas tree. When they stop to listen to a street musician， Brian， the younger boy， sees a woman take his mother s wallet， which holds a precious memento his grandmother has just given them， a St. Christopher medal that saved her husband s life in World War II， and which she and Brian believe will save his father s life now.Unable to get his mother s attention， Brian impulsively follows the woman who has taken the wallet into the city s subways， thereby beginning a journey that will threaten his life and change that of his mother and of the thief， as well.Written with warmth， yet set against a background of menace and thrilling suspense， Silent Night is about courage in the face of adversity， and faith renewed and faith rewarded.It is Mary Higgins Clark s Christmas gift for readers of all seasons.
