Coffee, Corpses, and Candy
(2026)(The tenth book in the Pumpkin Hollow Candy Store Mystery series)
A novel by Kathleen Suzette
Trouble is brewing in Pumpkin Hollow.
Mia Banks and her sister Christy depend on a strong cup of coffee to get them through the day at their candy shop, and their best friends, Amanda and Brian, own the perfect little coffee shop to grab a latte, catch up with friends, and indulge in a little caffeine-fueled gossip. But when a new coffee shop opens nearby, Pumpkin Hollow's streets are brewing with competition.
When the rival owner is found dead, Amanda is the prime suspect, and Mia refuses to believe her best friend could be a killer. But as evidence mounts, Mia begins to wonder if their friendship is clouding her judgment.
With Ethan investigating, Mia launches her own search for the truth. Because if Amanda didn’t commit the murder, someone else did—and that killer may be closer than anyone realizes.
Grab your favorite cup of coffee, settle in with something sweet, and get ready for a deliciously twisty Pumpkin Hollow mystery where the candy is sweet, the coffee is hot, and murder is always on the menu!
