Sometimes the need to win…
Eclipses the point of winning.
A disaster that has been brewing for more than half-a-century is heading straight for the Roastery on 33rd, and the staff have dubbed the storm
Hurricane Hayward.

When roastery owner Margaret Hayward’s lifelong nemesis claims she’s planning a visit to the humble little town of Dunforth, New Hampshire, Margaret is beyond suspicious.

The two women have been lifelong rivals and Margaret fully intends to use the Roastery to illlustrate her success.

As Margaret plots her triumph, with a macchiato in hand, another mysterious case finds its way to the front counter of the Roastery.

A wealthy socialite has passed under most peculiar circumstances – perhaps at the hands of the same person who stole her precious collection of antiques.

The case takes a surprising turn when the evidence seems to point to a relative who peddles snake-oil veiled as a miracle weight-loss coffee.

Barista Paige Palmer, whose own world seems to be crumbling before her very eyes, scrambles to gather clues and solve the puzzle before the killer seems ready to strike again.

One thing is certain…life is about to change for the staff at the Roastery. Will it be a dire change?

Find out in this exciting finale of this caffeinated Cozy Mystery series!
