SCRAPBOOK OF THE DEAD
Halloween means spooky scrapbooks for the
Cumberland Creek Scrapbook Crop, but what’s been
happening around town is truly frightening.
First a dead woman is found in the freezer at
Pamela’s Pie Palace, and the next day a
second woman is found murdered by the river.
Reporter Annie Chamovitz learns the victims
were sisters and is certain their deaths are linked.
Most bizarre of all, both women were found
clutching scrapbook pages.
 
As their Saturday night crop quickly becomes an
opportunity to puzzle out the murders, the ladies
begin to wonder if Pamela is hiding more than
her secret recipes for delicious pies—or if the crimes
are related to the startling discovery that there are
gangs in Cumberland Creek. As All Hallows Eve
approaches, the crafty croppers must cut and paste
the clues to unmask a deadly killer.
