Synopsis

Some machines don't just make coffee. Some of them keep secrets.

Maya Lin just wanted to open a coffee shop. Three weeks before the grand opening of The Daily Grind, she's still polishing the chrome on a fifty-year-old Italian espresso machine and arguing with a rescue dog who thinks the bean sacks are his personal bed.

Then a ruthless developer threatens to bulldoze Main Street to make room for his next big deal and turns up dead in Maya's alley the same night, struck down with a vintage coffee tamper.

Maya had a public argument with the victim hours before he died. That's more than enough for the local detective to put her shop under police hold and her name at the top of his suspect list.

With her life savings on the line and her rescue dog Mocha at her heels, Maya starts digging and finds a decades-old coded ledger hidden inside her own espresso machine, one that ties half of Main Street to a secret nobody was supposed to find. Now she has three suspects, one skeptical detective who might be more than a suspect-list problem, and about three weeks to clear her name before her dream shuts down for good.

THE ESPRESSO EXECUTION is Book One in the Anchor Bay Mystery series, a clean, cozy whodunit with:

• A sharp, resourceful amateur sleuth reader will want to root for
• A loyal golden retriever with impeccable crime-scene instincts
• A slow-burn romance that never gets in the way of the mystery
• A small coastal town worth moving to, if it weren't for the murder rate
• Zero graphic violence, zero profanity, safe for the whole book club

Pour a cup, pull up a chair, and find out who really killed Arthur Vance, before Maya's coffee shop closes for good.
