Espresso Shots & Murder Plots - Paperback

by Audrey Alden (Author)

A charming town, a cozy bookstore café, and a deadly secret no one saw coming...

Mount Pleasant was supposed to be Lila Bennett's fresh start-away from the noise of city life, in a quaint bookstore café where the coffee is warm and the books are better. But when a local entrepreneur is found dead just before the town's annual Blessing of the Fleet celebration, Lila's peaceful life takes a dark turn.

At first, it seems like an unfortunate accident. But something feels off, like a missing puzzle piece. As the town mourns, Lila can't shake the feeling that there's more to the story-something buried beneath the surface.

With Finn, her ever-curious Golden Retriever, by her side, Lila starts digging into the mystery. What was Roscoe Thomas really up to in the days before his death? And why is everyone acting so strange?

As Lila uncovers secrets that the town would rather stay hidden, she realizes that no one is as innocent as they seem. Everyone has a motive. And someone is willing to kill to keep their darkest secrets safe.

Espresso Shots & Murder Plots serves up a page-turning mystery full of quirky characters, surprising twists, and a heroine who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth.
