Back in her hometown of Aldenville, Pennsylvania, April Buchert is creating a new life for herself as a professional rubber stamper and restoration expert. She's also joined the Stamping Sisters, a group of women who love stamping cards - and stamping out murder... The annual Pumpkin Express weekend is a fall tradition in Aldenville, and the corn maze is one of the main attractions. Everyone has always made it out alive... until now.

Professional rubber stamper April Buchert is shocked to discover that the brother of one of the Stamping Sisters faked his own death, only to really die in a tragic car accident-that was not an accident at all. Now this heated family drama could cause one cold winter if the killer isn't found. -- Fantastic Fiction website
