출판사 설명
"Coyle's Coffeehouse books are superb" (Library Journal), and now the national bestselling author of Murder by Mocha serves up a hot new Coffeehouse Mystery with A Brew to a Kill.
Coffee. It can get a girl killed.
A shocking hit-and-run in front of her Village Blend coffeehouse spurs Clare Cosi into action. A divorced, single mom in her forties, Clare is also a dedicated sleuth, and she's determined to track down this ruthless driver who ran down an innocent friend and customer. In the meantime, her ex-husband Matt, the shop's globetrotting coffee buyer, sources some amazing new beans from Brazil. But he soon discovers that he's importing more than coffee, and Clare may have been the real target of that deadly driver. Can ex-husband and wife work together to solve this mystery? Or will their newest brew lead to murder? Includes recipes.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The pseudonymous Coyle (the wife-husband writing team of Alice Alfonsi and Marc Cerasini) lavishly details an ethnically diverse New York City in her lively 11th coffeehouse mystery featuring Clare Cosi (after 2011's Murder by Mocha). When a hit-and-run driver grievously injures Lilly Beth Tanga, Clare's Filipina business associate, in front of Clare's coffeehouse, the Village Blend, Clare figures the perp must be their arch-rival Kaylie Crimini, the abrasive and pugnacious owner of a competing food truck. But as quick-acting accident investigation squad member "Mad Max" Buckman cogently reasons, the intended victim was most likely Clare herself. As Clare utilizes her multitalented group of friends baristas, politicians, cyclists to find out who wants her dead, she slowly uncovers a fiendish plot involving some Brazilian drug lords. Compensating for the occasional lapses in logic is an addendum of tempting recipes mentioned in the story, including one for homemade Nutella.

A brew to kill
Loved it!!!! Definitely one of Cleo Coyle's best.
Kept skipping ahead
Not the best of the Coffee mystery series. I kept skipping ahead to get to the plot, repetitive and silly at times.
A Brew To Kill
I have all of Cleo Coyle's books, love them all, but I think this was the best.
Can't wait for December 4th for the release of her next endeavor!
