Was it a neighbor, relative, or TV chef who swiped a generations-old pumpkin pie recipe? As eleven-year-old super sleuths Alex and Yasmeen sift through the clues, Alex's dad tries to remember the recipe's secret ingredient in time for his guest appearance on a TV cooking show. Freeman mixes in plenty of humor and adds enough hints for readers to spot whodunit.
