From author Lena Gregory comes a tasty summer murder mystery…
Danika Delaney is thrilled that her old fashioned malt shop, the Coffee & Cream Café, has gotten
a catering contract for the biggest party of the season, the Rutherford Manor Fourth of July gala.
She’ll be providing desserts for the party as well as attending the exclusive event on Eastern
Long Island.
However her path to the gala quickly becomes a rocky road…
Dani arrives at the event, only to find the gala’s hostess, Cressida Rutherford, dead! What’s
worse, one of Dani’s signature parfaits sits next to the dead woman, with what looks like peanuts
in it—a food Cressida is severely allergic to. Amid the melted ice cream mess, Dani initially
blames herself, thinking she made a mistake while rushing with the desserts. However she
quickly learns that what appeared to be an accident was actually foul play, and suddenly Dani
has to spring into action proving that she isn’t the perpetrator. Along with her friends, Dani
uncovers a string of people in Cressida’s life who might have wanted the socialite dead. Can she
prove her innocence and make sure the killer gets their just desserts?
