    About this ebook

    Facing your in-laws at the holidays is hard enough without your mother-in-law also thinking you've stolen her prized serving dish. What Lela's about to find out is that there may be other members of her new family that have an ax to grind. This story appears in the Thanksgiving mystery anthology THE KILLER WORE CRANBERRY.
