<DIV><B>Vejay investigates the poisoning death of one of the town&rsquo;s most powerful citizens during its oddest annual event</B></DIV><BR /><DIV>Though it sounds violent, Henderson&rsquo;s annual slugfest is less vicious than it is slimy. The regional festival honors the normally detested California banana slug with competitions to prove which slug is the biggest, fastest, or&mdash;in the event that gives the festival its notoriety&mdash;the tastiest. Rather than eat crow, the area&rsquo;s local politicians atone for their sins by eating slug hot dogs, slug chili, and slug pie. This year, one dish will prove murderously foul.</DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV><DIV>Edwina Henderson is the last of her family to live in the town that bears their name. A committed environmentalist, she is also the woman responsible for this year&rsquo;s slugfest, and will take her place at the judge&rsquo;s table. When a slug-pizza knocks her flat, the crowd assumes it was just an especially gross slice. But when she doesn&rsquo;t get up, meter-reader Vejay Haskell must confront the devious murder of the town&rsquo;s leading treehugger.<BR /><BR /><DIV>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Susan Dunlap including rare images from the author&rsquo;s personal collection.<BR /><BR /><B><I>The Last Annual Slugfest</I> is the 3rd book in the Vejay Haskell Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.</B></DIV></DIV>
