A Shot of Scandal: A Cafe Crimes Cozy Mystery Series, Book 1

Small town. Big crime. And one feisty, caffeine-fueled amateur sleuth caught in the middle. It all starts here in A Shot of Scandal—the first brew in the Cafe Crimes Cozy Mystery series. Parker Hayes—a former true-crime podcaster turned aspiring cafe owner—thought swapping the hustle of big-city life for the charm of Magnolia Grove would be a piece of cake… or at least a slice of pie. But when a high-society gala at the historic Beauregard Mansion ends with a murder and the theft of the priceless Magnolia Rose necklace, Parker's peaceful plans quickly go up in steam. Between renovating her new cafe and navigating small-town secrets, Parker finds herself in the middle of a mystery steeped in scandal, lies, and lattes. Can she sift through Magnolia Grove's dirty laundry, catch a killer, and still get her cafe up and running? Pour yourself a cup of intrigue with A Shot of Scandal—where the coffee is hot, the clues are curious, and the suspect list is longer than the dessert menu.
