Mug Shot: A Java Jive Mystery

Mug Shot: A Java Jive Mystery

Full of humor and suspense, the bestselling Java Jive series heats up as the irrepressible heroine of Death Before Decaf faces off against Nashvilleâ€™s upper crust to solve a shocking murder.
Â
Former musician Juliet Langley has barely had a day off since taking over management of the coffeehouse owned by her best friend, Pete Bennett. But thereâ€™s always more to be doneâ€”such as prepping for the annual Holiday 5K Race organized by Peteâ€™s snobby socialite girlfriend, Cecilia Hollingsworth. This year, Java Jive has a booth right at the finish line, and since Juliet and Cecilia donâ€™t always see eye to eye, everything has to be perfect. Nothing can go wrong. Nothing . . . like Juliet stumbling over Ceciliaâ€™s dead body on the morning of the race.
Â
When Pete is arrested for Ceciliaâ€™s murder, Juliet sets out to clear his name. Sheâ€™ll do whatever it takesâ€”even if it means standing up to the police, her ex-boyfriend, and the grande dames of Nashville. But there isnâ€™t enough espresso in the world for the greatest challenge in her path: infiltrating Nashvilleâ€™s high society to uncover the hidden hotbed of scandal without running afoul of the law herself. With her last dime staked on Peteâ€™s bail bond and her staff growing jittery, the last thing Juliet needs is for her trademark temper to land her behind bars. As time drips away, Juliet needs to crack this case before the killer comes back for another shot.
