Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Clark's suspenseful Christmas tale spent 13 weeks on PW's bestseller list.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.


From School Library Journal

YA?It is Christmas Eve in New York City when Brian, a determined seven year old, follows the thief who took his mother's wallet, hoping to retrieve the St. Christopher's medal that he believes will save his father, who has leukemia, just as it saved his grandfather in World War II. However, the child is kidnapped by a vicious escaped convict who needs a hostage. The central characters come to life rapidly as the fast-moving story quickly builds suspense. Teens will appreciate the realistic, paradoxical description of the relationship between Brian and his older brother: caring, concerned, and name-calling at the same time. Although readers know that the ending will be a happy one, they won't expect the coincidences and the touching holiday details.?Claudia Moore, W.T. Woodson High School, Fairfax, VA

5.0 out of 5 stars A Christmas Gift, Feb 18 2004
This review is from: Silent Night (Audio Cassette)
I read this book while I was sitting in my OB/GYN's office, in agony. It was Thanksgiving and Christmas was right around the corner, and I fould out that I had tumors. I checked out the book as a Christmas read, but after reading it, it confirmed the idea of what Christmas is all about. I realized how lucky I was, and was glad that my health problem had been found before it grew worse.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Holiday Read, Jan 18 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Silent Night: A Christmas Suspense Story (Mass Market Paperback)
Although not a traditional fan of Mary Higgins Clark, I read the book over the holidays and found myself glued to the pages. The characters are so real, and the suspense is spellbinding. You care so much about the characters that you can't put the book down.

4.0 out of 5 stars GOOD HOLIDAY READ!, Jan 2 2004
By Dana Y. Bowles "DYB" (West Chester, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Silent Night: A Christmas Suspense Story (Mass Market Paperback)
Catherine Dornan appears to have it all--a comfortable lifestyle, a loving husband and two wonderful little boys. Then her physician husband falls ill with a life-threatening illness. The boys' grandmother gives them a St. Christopher medal--that saved her husband's life in World War II--and instructs them to give it to their father, and it will make him well. Although skeptical, Catherine Dornan does as her mother instructs and places the St. Christopher medal in her wallet for safekeeping. Little Brian Dornan however, the youngest of the two boys, is relying on that medal to make his father well again. So when he spots a woman pick up his mother's wallet from off of the ground while at Rockefeller center listening to Christmas carols, he takes off in hot pursuit. Brian has no idea what is waiting for him when he finally catches up with the young woman; and it soon becomes clear to Brian that St. Christopher may save not only his father's life--but perhaps his own.
