A Deadly Donation

A Small Town Coffee Cozy Mystery

By: Maisy Marple

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Sarah Stall lands the biggest catering job of her career—the prestigious Giving Hearts Charity Breakfast—she expects a morning of elegant bagels, wealthy donors, and maybe a little harmless gossip. What she doesn't expect is to find the foundation's most generous benefactor dead in a storage room, strangled with her own silk scarf. Now Sarah's serving coffee to a roomful of philanthropists, and one of them is a killer.

The victim was a woman who collected enemies the way others collect fine art, and the suspects are as polished as their platinum credit cards. A retired surgeon with old grudges. A tech millionaire with something to prove. A loyal assistant who knows too many secrets. And a foundation chair whose decades of good work may be hiding something darker. As Sarah digs deeper, she discovers that behind the glittering facade of charitable giving lies a web of stolen credit, simmering resentments, and one desperate act that changed everything.

With her beloved café to run, her friends offering questionable investigative advice, and a budding romance with the town veterinarian, Sarah has plenty on her plate. But when the clues point toward someone she never suspected, she'll have to decide how far she's willing to go for the truth—and whether some secrets are worth killing to keep. Fans of cozy mysteries filled with small-town charm, witty banter, and just the right amount of danger will devour this fourth installment in the Bean There, Done That series.
