A Brew to a Kill (A Coffeehouse Mystery)
Used Book in Good Condition
"Coyle's Coffeehouse books are superb" (Library Journal), and now the New York Times bestselling author of MURDER BY MOCHA serves up a hot new Coffeehouse Mystery with A BREW TO A KILL.Â
The Village Blend's Muffin Muse coffee truck is all the rage--in more ways than one. A rival food truck owner is in a rage over the competition. The shocking hit-and-run that follows, right in front of Clare's Village Blend coffeehouse, spurs her into action.Â
A divorced, single mom in her forties, Clare Cosi is also a dedicated sleuth, and she's determined to catch the ruthless driver who ran down an innocent friend and customer. Then she opens a bag of imported coffee beans and finds ten pounds of rocks--the kind that will earn you a twenty-year jail sentence. Is her ex-husband and business partner smuggling Brazilian crack? Is her staff now in danger? To clear up this murky brew, Clare must sweet-talk two federal agents, dupe a drug kingpin, stake out a Dragon Boat festival, and teach a cocky young undercover cop how to pull the perfect espresso--all while keeping herself and her baristas out of hot water. Coffee. It can get a girl killed. Originally published in hardcover by Penguin, August 7, 2012.
