Book Review: Silent Night


My rating : 4 stars

Blurb
Mary Higgins Clark, America's most beloved writer of suspense, has crafted a very special story about a child's courage in the face of danger, and the power of love.... When Catherine Dornan's husband, Tom, is diagnosed with leukemia, she and their two young sons travel with him to New York during the holiday season for a lifesaving operation. On Christmas Eve, hoping to lift the boys' spirits, Catherine takes them to see Rockefeller Center's famous Christmas tree, where seven-year-old Brian notices a woman taking his mother's wallet. A St. Christopher medal tucked inside the wallet saved his grandfather's life in World War II, and Brian believes with all his heart that it will protect his father now. Impulsively, Brian follows the thief into the subway, and the most dangerous adventure of his young life begins.... Charged with menace and thrilling suspense, Silent Night is Mary Higgins Clark's Christmas gift to readers for all seasons.

My thought
 A young boy sees a thief who takes his mother's wallet on Christmas Eve. The wallet contains a St. Christopher medal which the boy thinks will save his father's life. He follows the thief and puts them both in grave danger. 
I liked the suspense factor of the book. It was a very interesting story, somewhat predictable, but entertaining nonetheless. It felt like reading a children's story book, with a tinge of suspense to keep you going to the next page.
I would recommend this book to anyone. It is very entertaining. I feel it would make a great TV Movie.
