Death by Iced Coffee

A Bookstore Cafe Mystery, Book 11

De: Alex Erickson

Narrado por: Melissa Moran

A smart, well-crafted mystery set in a charming Midwestern small town, where bookstore-cafe owner Krissy Hancock has a sideline in sleuthing—just right for fans of Leslie Meier, Cleo Coyle, and Carolyn Hart.

Bookstore-cafe owner Krissy Hancock is stepping out from behind the counter to take part in the first annual Pine Hills, Ohio, marathon. But with a killer close by, she may soon be running for her life . . .

It's a brutally hot day in Pine Hills, and Krissy Hancock would love to be sitting in a shady spot and sipping her favorite iced coffee. Instead, she's lacing up her sneakers for a marathon—and swiftly regretting it. Especially when she finds one of the other runners lying motionless. At first Krissy suspects heatstroke, but the red marks around the man's throat tell a more sinister story.

The victim, it turns out, had brewed up all kinds of enemies thanks to his cheating ways-both romantic and financial. Krissy's not keen to get involved, but her friend Rita's boyfriend, Johan, seems to be mixed up in the mayhem. For Rita's sake, Krissy wants to help filter out the real killer. But can she do it before another Pine Hills resident gets permanently iced?

A marathon in the scorching sun! Not the best idea!

A murder happens at the marathon, taking place in the scorching heat. Not the best idea, but it’s still going on. Krissy just can’t keep her nose clean, but on the plus side she is getting all the information. She is so good at solving mysteries . I like how you get to see how in the small town, everyone knows one another, but they also are tight and keeps one another’s secrets, sometimes. Well, what goes around comes around.
