A fast-paced cozy mystery perfect for a short listen. Hannah’s dream café turns into a crime scene when a body is found in the alley, and she’s suddenly the prime suspect. With the detective tight-lipped and business slipping, she dives into amateur sleuthing to clear her name. The story is light, engaging, and ideal for fans of quick whodunits.

Started out great, then felt really, really rushed at the end.

Hannah has just opened her coffee shop and is working hard to get a bigger customer base. It doesn’t happen when a large group of loud men come in one day for lunch and proceed to flirt with and touch her waitress. When one of the men grab her, Hannah lets the group know in uncertain terms that the behavior would not be tolerated. The next thing you know, one of the men is found dead outside the back door of Hannah’s shop and for some reason, she is a suspect.
Hannah decides to solve the case herself and fast so she doesn’t lose her customers. Before she has a chance to solve the case, she is arrested for the crime. Luckily proof comes forth that exonerates her and the real criminals are caught.
Again, the writing on this story isn’t up to the usual standards. There are choppy parts and grammatical errors. I going through by an editor or proofreader would help tremendously.

Didn't like this simple story. Same o stuff. One dimensional story and characters. A no go for me. I felt it a waste of time.

This was a group of short stories and I only read the first one and it was okay. May try to read the others later.
