I picked this book up recently at the Book Thing, for a Christmastime release. Hope the finder enjoys reading it as much as I'll enjoy releasing it!
From the cover -
Three days before Christmas, Regan Reilly, the dynamic young sleuth featured in the novels of Carol Higgins Clark, accidentally meets Alvirah Meehan, Mary Higgins Clark's famous lottery winner and amateur detective, at a Jersey dentist's office. That's where it all begins.
While Regan's mother, Nora, the famous mystery writer, is in the hospital with a broken leg, her husband, Luke, and his chauffeur, Rosita, are kidnapped and held for a million-dollar ransom. Together, Regan and Alvirah track the case as the inept yet dangerous kidnappers make their demands known. Meanwhile, Luke and Rosita are held captive on a houseboat on the Hudson River and a fiece winter storm is gathering force.
DECK THE HALLS blends suspense with poignancy, laugh-out-loud humor, and all-around holiday cheer - a Christmas classic for many seasons to come.

I don't normally read these authors, but have released many of their books over the years. A few years ago, I read He Sees You When You're Sleeping, another Christmas book by the same authors and enjoyed it so I decided to try this one.
This was a lighthearted Christmas read, although not laugh-out-loud funny (although there was a bumbling bad guy who was quite amusing in his ineptness). A nice, easy, and quick read for the crazy season. I'll release this soon. Hope the next reader enjoys it too!

Waiting to get a mamogram and informed that it wouldn't be for another 20-30 minutes. The magazines available weren't interesting so I started to read this book. It's an easy read.
Happy Holidays!
