Marigolds, Mochas, and Murder: A Sweetie's Latte Cozy Mystery

By Shelley Weiss

A haunted newsroom. A poisoned mocha. A killer hiding in plain sight.

When Moon's Landing celebrates the season with marigold garlands, candlelit altars, and Sweetie's Latte's famous Phantom Mocha, caf owner Lindsay Zimmer is ready for a cozy autumn festival filled with storytelling and sweet treats, not murder.

But when rising newspaper star Desi Marigold drops dead at Moon's News after drinking a latte from Lindsay's caf , rumors swirl faster than steamed milk.

Desi had no shortage of enemies. A gossip columnist threatened by her success. A former romance-writing partner desperate to revive their bestselling pen name. A wealthy coffee heiress hiding dangerous secrets. And an exhausted assistant pushed to the brink.

As if that were not enough, Moon's Landing is buzzing with rumors that Moon's News is haunted.

Typewriters clack in empty rooms.

Lights flicker after midnight.

And someone, or something, has been moving through the archives after dark.

Lindsay must uncover the truth before the killer serves up another deadly surprise. Because in Moon's Landing, even ghost stories can hide a murder.
This is a Short Story.
