Back cover: Joining together for a good cause brings out the best in today's top mystery writers! For this marvelously entertaining anthology, these outstanding contributors rose to a unique literary challenge: each penned a tale that ingeniously features a thick fog, a thick book, and a thick steak.
The result is a collection of wonderfully imaginative tales that both chill the spine and warm the heart: proceeds from THE PLOT THICKENS will help bring the gift of reading to millions of disadvantaged Americans.
I got this book from PaperBackSwap.com because one of the contributors was Janet Evanovich, who writes Stephanie Plum - and her tale featured Stephanie, Lula and Grandma Mazur! Hilarious, as only a Plum tale can be! There were 11 tales altogether, and I liked almost all of them. It was fun trying to find where and how each author used the thick fog, thick book and thick steak! Profits from the book were donated to Literacy Partners. It was published by Pocket Books in 1997.
Excellence rating: *** - Pretty Good
