Cold-brewed Murder.
Barista, Paige Palmer has escaped the drudgery of academia and is settling into what she hopes will be a drama-free, ordinary life in the small New Hampshire town of Dunforth. Things go awry for her, however, when a stranger comes in for coffee and leaves her with a puzzling declaration that leads to a decades-old missing person case.

Paige shrugs off the stranger’s odd proclamation, but her situation becomes a bit more complicated when the body of the formerly missing person is found a few days later. She’s convinced that the stranger is the killer and that he’s playing a game of cat-and-mouse with her that she can’t avoid.

With the encouragement of her bold, but secretly tender-hearted employer, coffee-aficionado Margaret Hayward, and the crime chasing novelist, Rohan Chowdhury, Paige finds herself falling down a new rabbit hole.

A story of a family plagued by lies, unrequited love, and criminal conspiracy begins boiling over in the tiny town – and a motive most bitter threatens to reveal itself.
