Sage and that gang are back on the festival circuit and of course happen upon a dead body. This time it's Mark, former employer of several Ground Rules employees and series bugbear who has finally come a cropper. There's no shortage of suspects including multiple ex-wives, burned would-be business partners, and blackmail victims. Sage, helped by her soon-to-be stepson Nico and the rest of her crew, has to figure out how to exonerate her coffee roaster in between pulling espresso shots and mixing up coffee tonics. Sage is a little more acerbic in this installment than in those past, but she has to be getting tired of tripping over corpses.

#FatalBrouhaha #NetGalley is another great addition to this series.
Sage is a wonderful character and the author does a fantastic job of bringing all the characters to life. Each time I open one of these books, I feel like I'm catching up with old friends.
This book is definitely well done, the mystery reflects around the death of the owner of another coffee shop, who has close ties to Sage and her parter Harley. Sage knows she needs to help with the investigation unless she wants Harley to end up behind bars.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for selecting me to read an advanced copy of this book.

This was another quick, enjoyable read. I really like this series and its characters. Sage is an interesting protagonist and I can't wait until her mysterious con artist mother finally makes an appearance.
