The San Nicholas Pumpkin Festival is on its way, and Val Harris is judging the Pumpkin Pie Bakeoff. And I'm sure things will run smoothly...
This Halloween, pie shop proprietor Val Harris must patch together clues to solve a murder by pumpkin . . .
As the owner of Pie Town, Val’s been tapped to judge the pie making contest at the annual pumpkin festival in the coastal California town of San Nicholas. Things could get sticky though—her boyfriend, cop Gordon Carmichael, is entering the competition with his “special” family pumpkin pie recipe. A conflict of interest? But Val’s got bigger problems when she and her flaky piecrust-maker Charlene discover another contestant crushed under an enormous pumpkin.

But as they dodge lethal pumpkin cannons and follow the clues into a figurative and literal maze, the pie pals are in for the scariest Halloween of their lives—and maybe their last . . .
