Blurb: 
When Blackberry, Judy's remarkable black cat, presents her with his latest gift—a curious little pink china wing, which he had found in the garden—it takes Judy seven days and a three-hundred-mile journey to solve the mystery to which the china wing was—at first—the sole clue.

Oddly enough, another mystery leads Judy to her second clue involving the broken wing. When Judy and Peter travel to Brooklyn to visit the Meredith family at Tower House, they discover that the house has been torn down! What has happened to the Merediths? Judy and Peter can learn nothing from the lady across the street, but inexplicably, the broken wing found by Blackberry matches the missing piece from an angel on the family's mantelpiece.

How the young girl detective risks her life to find the answers to many seemingly unrelated puzzles and gives to a sorrowing family the most precious Christmas gift of all makes for a thrilling and moving story.
