She intends to have them cook and serve a meal to the homeless, but unfortunately a powerful parent takes over, and the simple meal turns into a catered affair - topped off by murder. Of course, Amanda wants to solve the crime with her sometime boyfriend, cop C. K. Mackenzie. She's equally determeind to teach the the elusive killer a lesson or two, as well.

From Gillian Roberts, the Anthony Award-winning author of Caught Dead in Philadelphia, I'd Rather Be in Philadelphia, With Friends Like These..., and How I Spent My Summer Vacation.

Critic Reviews

"The central pleasure is Pepper and her catalogue of urban woes, delivered with self-depracting savagery and humor in a scathing first person." (The Philadelphia Inquirer)
