Joanna Coffee is living up to her name, planning the grand opening of her coffee shop in Bennett Falls. At least until local millionaire Sherman Cromwell winds up dead in the street holding a macchiato from Jo's shop. Not exactly the kind of press she wanted for her new business.

Now the prime suspect in Cromwell's murder, Jo is determined to prove her innocence, even if it means donning her own detective cap and solving this mystery herself. If she doesn't clear her name soon, she'll be turning in her apron for an orange jumpsuit.
