Follow the lives of eight quilters from Chicagoland as they gather once a month to play Bunco, the popular no-skills dice game. The last thing Lettie wants is for a member to quit their Bunco Club, but a well-guarded hoarding obsession may cause that very thing to happen.

Follow the members as their stories are revealed and woven together through the bond of friendship-from a heart stopping discovery of a national historic treasure, to a 39-year-old secret, to a mom whose child is devastated from being bullied. Eight women capture the hearts of readers who will long to be members of THE BUNCO CLUB.

About the Author

Karen DeWitt is a member of a Bunco Club that has been together for more than twenty years. She also holds an MFA in studio art from Southern Illinois University and has attended workshops at the renowned Iowa Summer Writing Festival. Karen's career as a professional artist became challenged several years ago when Multiple Sclerosis claimed the fine motor skills of her right hand. Struggling to stay creative, she trained her left-hand so she could continue to produce art, while at the same time beginning work on THE BUNCO CLUB. "I've always loved to write, so when one door closed, I jumped at the chance to open a new one."
