A very enjoyable book. The characters were varied and likeable, and their interactions interesting. The plot was engrossing and the ending unforeseen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coffee with a twist!

What a fun and intriguing read! Not a book that is just printed fluff, it definitely has depth. I found myself dreaming of this little town, the friends I'd have, and of course great coffee! The amazing scenery was so well described it was fun to see it in my minds eye. And, can't forget the mystery! A well portrayed villain added to the twists and turns of the book! So, grab the book, grab a cup of coffee, and jump into this delightful book!

**spoiler alert**

I was having a great time with the story at first, it felt wholesome. All the side characters, the locations and the scenes were nicely described.

But then it started to look just okay to me when I saw certain words/phrases repeating across characters, the author could have used a thesaurus I suppose. Also, two side characters (the receptionist at the law firm and the waitress at the fancy restaurant) were named the same, for no reason. They both have brief and inconsequential appearances, so they really could have been named distinctly. And then, the main character Zion who is so watchful otherwise, completely ignores the lawyer being called a 'traitor' by a crime suspect, thereby putting her lawyer under suspicion too. But Zion's not registering the remark at all felt out-of-character to me, and from there on I started losing interest.

The final event that cost the review some stars was the choice to portray such a character as the criminal who was suspected to be autistic. What's my problem with that? Well, the story just goes on to feed the prejudice people have towards mental disability. Instead of teaching the audience to show compassion and curiosity towards such individuals, it tells the readers - watch out! That weird person you everyday? Yeah, he could be a murderer!

Wow, way to go!

I didn't enjoy the book enough to the end that I would give a raving review and be dying to read the rest in this series or more by this author.

This was a good story, spoiled by the excessive profanity, sadly. You may want to skip it if that is not your thing.
