Lana Lewis
was a married journalist in Miami until suddenly she wasn’t.
Now divorced and running her family coffee shop, Perkatory,
on the Gulf Coast, Lana’s faced with a new set of challenges.
The café is competing in the Sunshine State Barista Championship
when her best employee up and quits with no notice, leaving
the chances of winning the contest in his dust.
When her former employee, Fab Bellucci is found dead in the
alley behind the café, Lana finds herself in the position
of the prime suspect. Using her investigative skills, Lana sets
out to clear her name and find the real murderer. Luckily, she
won’t have to hunt for the killer alone as her hippie-dad,
new barista, and others pitch in to help.
I enjoyed this first in a new series mystery so much! Tara Lush
has created a main character who is smart, clever, and determined.
The supporting characters are funny and unique and the mystery
is well-plotted and engaging. There is a lot of humor interspersed
with the murder mystery and that made the whole book even more
enjoyable. It was a fast read for me because I couldn’t
put it down for long.
I recommend you get in on the “ground floor” of
this series (pun intended) by reading Grounds for Murder.
You won’t be sorry. I am already anxiously awaiting the
next book! |
