In the newest cozy caper in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling Tourist Trap series, a new art studio has opened in the coastal California town of South Coveâbut itâs about to turn into a crime scene. . .
As the owner of Coffee, Books, and More, Jill Gardner likes to support other Main Street businesses, so she attends a paint-and-sip event where, sadly, her brushstrokes look more like blobs. Itâs still a fun night of DIY crafts and full glasses of wine thoughâexcept for a disruption by a couple doing more sipping than painting. Jillâs police-detective boyfriend is on alert, but when a designated driver volunteers to take the drunken pair back to their bed and breakfast, everything seems resolved. Until the wifeâs body turns up the next morning back in the studio.
The victim, Nan, is from out of town, so itâs hard to imagine whoâd have a motive aside from her spouse. Now, in between puzzling over her fortuneteller neighborâs strange behavior, preparing for her best friendâs wedding, and pouring cups of java at the bookstore, Jill must uncover the secrets of Nanâs life and find out who wanted her out of the picture . . .
Praise for Lynn Cahoon
âI love the authorâs style, which was warm and friendly . . . [A] wonderfully appealing series.â âDruâs Book Musings on the Tourist Trap Mysteries
âWell-crafted . . . Cat and crew prove to be engaging characters and Cahoon does a stellar job of keeping themâand the readerâguessing.â âMystery Scene on A Story to Kill
