the Christmas book challenge
Perfect book to read the day before Christmas. Nothing heavy, very easy read. I can't even remember the characters names now - this story is all about the plot. A con artist is released from prison; the Rockefeller tree is being cut down; the van Trapp family farm; a duped investor; a few private eyes; a rival neighbour; bumbling twin accomplices; and a broke poet. The plot twists and turns, but they are wide turns and easy to see. I'll look for the next book, The Christmas Cruise, next year.
