Book Synopsis

Things go from bad to worse for Wisconsin coffeehouse owner Maggy Thorsen when her cousin Jacque Oui finds himself in hot water.

Wisconsin coffeehouse owner Maggy Thorsen''s cousin, Jacque Oui, is in trouble. Big trouble! Not only is his cash-strapped Schultz''s Market facing competition from a major new grocery chain, but his ex-wife Paulette has arrived from Paris, spectacularly claiming that she and Jacque are still married, despite Jacque being engaged to Maggy''s friend and star barista Amy Caprese.

When a huge fire rips through Schultz''s Market overnight and a gruesome discovery is made in the shop''s upper flat, Maggy is drawn into her cousin''s affairs. But where is he? With Jacque suddenly missing, can Maggy uncover the truth behind the disturbing events triggered by Paulette''s arrival, or is she about to be scorched by a determined killer?
