Tortoise Troubles and Murderous Muddles

A Laugh-Out-Loud Cozy Cafe Mystery

🐢 The tortoise and the terribly tangled mystery…

Mariposas’s new bookstore is ready to rise—until a conveniently placed desert tortoise shuts the whole project down. Cue chaos, a fame-hungry professor, and Chai losing his job before he finishes his coffee.

When Soledad’s 21st birthday bash erupts into a public spat with her old high-school rival, the night ends with more than hurt feelings. By morning, that same rival is dead… and the police are eyeing Solly as Suspect #1.

Now it’s up to Rosie and Tiff to sift through shady students, secret agendas, and one extremely suspicious tortoise to clear their friend’s name.

Expect:

• 🐢 Convenient wildlife & inconvenient lies

• 🥳 A birthday party gone sideways

• 🔍 A tangle of suspects

• ☕ Treats Café shenanigans

In Mariposas, even a tortoise can stop construction—but it won’t stop Rosie and Tiff from digging up the truth.
