Cappuccinos, Cupcakes, and a Corpse by Harper Lin

I really dislike books where the main character hides things from the police and Francesca Amaro, Franny, does so in this book. She's returned to her hometown after her mother's death and is trying to readjust to her new life running the family coffee shop. Her life is once again upended when she goes home early one day and discovers her neighbor, a man she grew up with, dead in the back yard. She does reconnect with the man's son, her childhood friend Matty. The two work together to try and figure out why his father was killed.

I'm going to try the second book in this series but I am a little worried about how hard Franny goes, not just in her investigating but her relationship with Matty as well.

Three stars
This book came out May 25, 2015
