As Village Blend manager Clare Cosi attempts to finalize a date for her wedding, her ex-husband becomes addicted to making dates through smartphone swipes. Clare has mixed feelings about these quickie matchups happening in her coffeehouse. Even her octogenarian employer is selecting suitors by screenshot! But business is booming, and Clare works hard to keep the espresso shots flowing. Then one dark night, another kind of shot leaves a dead body for her to find.

Though the NYPD quickly arrests one of his recent victims, Clare finds reason to believe she's been framed. Now, with the help of her ex and crew of quirky baristas, Clare starts "swiping" through suspects in her own shop, determined to find the real killer before another shot rings out. Includes a bang-up menu of tempting recipes.  SHOT IN THE DARK is the perfect amount of mystery and fun!SHOT IN THE DARK is one good brew of a mystery! Solving dating gone wrong!
