A bad meal is a misdemeanor but going to bed hungry is the biggest crime of all. 

The Perp Wore Pumpkin is still on the case, with a brand new volume to raise funds to fight hunger.

11 short story authors have joined forces to write humorous crime stories containing some of their favorite Thanksgiving dishes. Our authors have whipped up stories to tickle your funny bone, feed your urge for a good crime and make you a bit hungry in the process. Not to be outdone, Lisa Lynn provides the perfect accompaniment with recipes that people can make for the holidays using the basic staples found in nearly every home or from your local food bank.

Thanks to the publisher’s “Misti Gives Back” program, 100% of the net proceeds of the sales of this title will be split evenly among each of the contributors’ local Second Harvest Food Bank (a member of Feeding America) to help raise money to feed those most in need and at risk. If a contributor does not have a Second Harvest in their area, their share will go directly to Feeding America. Your purchase(s) ensure that more people will have access to food this holiday season and beyond. Many thanks to all the contributors who donated their stories to the cause: Shari Held, Sandra Murphy, Kevin R. Tipple, Vicki Erwin, Fedora Amis, Lisa Krystosek, Mike Rusetsky, Stephen M. Pierce, donalee Moulton, Sally Milliken and Wendy Harrison and Lisa Lynn.
