Alvirah and Willy travel to Vermont with Regan Reilly's family for a ski vacation. On a nearby farm a tree is scheduled to be cut down and put in Rockerfeller Center. Meanwhile a crook involved in investment fraud has hidden something very valuable in that tree. A light mystery, with some humor provided by the poet who is involved in the plot.

“I find that the books of Mary and Carol are too simple. They are short and usually have large print. I think I prefer a book that has a bot more meat to it and is a little tougher to read.”

“This is another one of the annual Christmas story from Mary and Carol HIggins Clark featuring Alvirah and Regan in this joint book. Only this time it involves a tree. A great read!”

“Swindler Packy Noonan gets out of jail, plotting to recover a flask of diamonds he has hidden in a tree. Packy's accomplices are the Como twins, Benny and JoJo, At the same time, everyone in Vermont is all aflutter over a local tree being chosen to grace Rockefeller Center. Alvirah and Willy Meehan are joined by Regan Reily and her fiance' Jack and his parents,and Alvirah's friend Opal, who lost millions of lottery winnings to one of Packy Noonan's scams, for a weekend in Vermont, where they plan to attend the ceremonial cutting down of the Rockefeller Center tree. Except it's the same tree where Packy stashed his diamonds, and he makes off with the tree first, hiding it in a barn. A rival tree farmer who had been planning to sabotage the tree gets caught up in the scam when he finds the diamonds first.”
