Because of her friendship with Professor Will Burke, Delilah becomes involved with arranging a tour for people who want to attend the Tennessee Williams Literary Festival held every year in New Orleans.  She figures that a group of English professors and their spouses will be a low-key, intelligent, and, well, professorial bunch.  Unlike some of her trouble-plagued tours, she expects this one to go smoothly.

Which, of course, she realizes later, is a sure-fire way to jinx things.

Phyllis is taking care of her grandson Bobby while her son Mike and daughter-in-law Sarah are out of town.  Carolyn gets Phyllis involved in the harvest festival to be held in one of the city parks the Saturday before Thanksgiving.  The purpose of the festival is to help feed the poor and homeless. 

Much like the peach festival held in the summer, there are games and rides and craft displays, as well as food vendors, a Thanksgiving cooking contest, and of course murder.
