Killer Coffee Cookbook
(2026)(A book in the Killer Coffee Mystery series)
A non fiction book by Tonya Kappes

Inspired by the beloved Killer Coffee Mystery Series, this cookbook gathers the mouthwatering dishes, signature drinks, and comforting treats featured throughout the series.
Inside, readers will find recipes straight from the heart of the Bean Hive Coffeehouse—the hub of the town’s secrets and scandals—where protagonist Roxanne Bloom serves up everything from decadent lattes to homestyle Southern desserts. Each recipe is paired with charming anecdotes, snippets of dialogue, or scene-setting introductions that tie it back to memorable moments from the books, making the experience feel like flipping through a scrapbook of Honey Springs life.

Southern comfort dishes inspired by town gatherings and festivals
Holiday recipes reflecting events across the series timeline
Even whimsical extras—like pet treats inspired by Roxy’s dog Pepper, echoing recipes the author has shared
More than just instructions, the cookbook would capture the tone of the series: cozy, humorous, and community-driven. Like the novels themselves—set in a charming small town where coffee and mystery go hand in hand —each page would immerse readers in a world where food brings people together… even when trouble is brewing.
