Publisher's Summary

When Krissy Hancock and her best friend Vicki decide to open a bookstore cafe in their new town of Pine Hills, they decide to call it "Death by Coffee", after Krissy's father's most famous mystery novel. Little do they know how well the name fits....

On their very first day of business, Brendon Lawyer huffily takes his coffee...to the grave. It seems he had a severe allergy to peanuts...but how could there have been nuts in his coffee? And who stole his emergency allergy medication?

Fortunately, Krissy's love of puzzles and mysteries leads her not only to Officer Paul Dalton, but also to many of her new neighbors, who aren't terribly upset that the book is closed on Brendon. But one of them is a killer, and Krissy needs to read between the lies if she wants to save her new store - and live to see how this story ends....

Death by Coffee

I love the concept and the title but I found the main character annoying and nosy. The narration was great at times but often dipped down into a monotone almost Siri like speech. Not an exciting story but worth finishing.

Not a believable plot

This is by far one of the worst books I have ever read! The main character does things that are nosey and totally selfish and at the end, is portrayed as a hero. It's almost like we have a book where the character simply has no ability to think about the consequences of her actions and actually gets away with it all. Then there is the ending. As if a police officer is going to sit and drink coffee and make polite conversation with someone who interfered with a police investigation and created a dangerous situation for everyone. Overall, a totally selfish character and please, take the cats out of the book! Hands down worst plot I have encountered in a long time.
