From beloved mother-daughter duo Mary Higgins Clark and Carol Higgins Clark comes a holiday treat you won’t want to miss.

In the picturesque village of Branscombe, New Hampshire, the townsfolk are all pitching directly into plan the 1st (and many hope annual) Event of Joy. The night before the festival begins, several employees at the local market learn they have won $160 million in the lottery. Among their co-workers, Duncan, determined at the last second, on the information of a pair of crooks masquerading as economic advisers, not to play. Then he goes lacking. A second earning lottery solution was purchased within the next city, but the winner hasn’t come ahead. Could Duncan possess secretly got it?

The Clarks’ endearing heroes — Alvirah Meehan, the amateur sleuth, and detective agency Regan Reilly — have arrived in Branscombe for the celebration. They are just the people to uncover what is normally amiss. Because they dig under the surface area, they discover that existence in Branscombe is not as tranquil since it appears. A lot for an old-fashioned weekend in the country.
