Pressed for a good book try ths

I enjoyed this book. This is book six in this coffee based series and unlike most coffee shop owning cozy mysteries, this author knows her stuff, sum times to much detail. This book was a lot better balanced with coffee information and mystery. There is still a lot of coffee talk and cheese, as Clare tries to get a job close to her daughter. Actually I didn't mind it this time round because once that section was over, the murder happened pretty quickly and the focus shifted to investigating. The mystery was good and took a number of twists as the body count raises. The characters are like able but I missed Grands help this time round, although the undercover investigation made up for it and brought the humour to the investigation. A fun mystery that I will be visiting again with the next book, especially as the book didn't end on a cliff hanger as such but left you with a teaser of what is in store next.
When Clare plans a surprise visit, she has no idea that she would be walking in on an enraged boss threatening her daughter with a knife. It's not the first time the chief has flown off the handle and when a work colleague and friend of Joy's is found dead Clare has to make sure her daughter stays safe and pitches the idea of showing them how to make a decent coffee. The man she really has to impress, is also the married man dating her daughter but things don't go to plan and Joy catches her lover and mother in a compromising position. So when he is found dead in his closed restaurant with Joy standing over him it's no surprise Joy is the number one suspect. Can Clare find the real killer before her daughter is sent to prison? Or is the motive more complicated than jealously.
I liked the narrator, she did a good job of bringing the characters to life.
