Killed by Cold Brew
(2025)(The first book in the Death and Other Inconveniences series)
A novel by Poppy Windham
She can see ghosts. The dead barista insists she was murdered. And the shadow monster feeding in the coffee shop? Yeah, that's new.
Twenty-one-year-old Marley Holloway just wants to survive her soul-crushing retail job and avoid ending up like her grandmother—institutionalized for trying to help the dead. But when pink-haired barista Sadie appears insisting she was murdered, not accidentally killed by her sesame allergy, Marley gets dragged into an investigation she definitely didn't sign up for.
Between embezzlement schemes, obsessive customers, and a possible serial killer, Marley discovers something far worse lurking in the coffee shop's shadows: a supernatural entity feeding on unresolved grief. And it's getting stronger.
With her Type-A roommate, film-geek coworker, and a wise-cracking ghost best friend, Marley has to solve Sadie's murder before the shadow monster consumes them all—and before she becomes the next victim.
Perfect for fans of snarky heroines, supernatural mysteries, and coffee shops that are definitely not as cozy as they seem.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
