When an old friend of her ex-husband develops the world's first botanically decaffeinated coffee bean and smuggles it into the country, Clare Cosi, manager of Village Blend, believes it's a business opportunity she needs to investigate...at least until the first dead body shows up.
Clare Cosi's cozy life is interupted by a man knocked out near her shop. The man is her husband's partner in developing a botanically decaffeinated coffee bean, with the potential to be a huge money spinner. However bodies associated with the entire affair start accumulating.
It really didn't have a sense of peril or suspense (apart from wondering for a while who was going to die) and really seemed to putter along like a long-running series that is depending on familiarity rather than suspense in keeping reading going.
Overall not bad but not great.
