Pumpkins and Pixels

Would you kill to win the Giant Pumpkin Festival?

Retired festival director Rusty Redmond thought she'd traded pumpkin chaos for peace and quiet. But when the Giant Pumpkin Festival's brand-new drone-carving derby ends in a shocking on-air murder, she's pulled right back into the spotlight.

With her buff-colored cocker spaniel, Boo, at her side, Rusty finds herself juggling a tangle of suspects: a teen coding prodigy, a rival grower with a grudge, a social media queen, and a charming corporate sponsor with a polished smile and too many secrets.

The mayor's given her until the lantern-lit finale to help the sheriff crack the case-or risk the festival's reputation going up in smoke.

Armed with sharp instincts, a lifetime of event-planning savvy, and Boo's knack for finding clues, Rusty must untangle the sabotage before the killer turns the spotlight-and the danger-on her.
