A Bitter Shot

This barista's in a whole latte trouble...

The new barista at Cascade River Coffee is Stoneybrook's new obsession. Everyone loves Max and his latte art... until he's found standing over a body, a smoking gun in hand. The coffee company's owner, Wendy, is desperate to prove her most popular employee is not guilty. She seeks out Hadley's help with the case.

As Hadley, Paul, Suze, and Luke join together to discover the truth about the murder, they uncover more secrets than they bargained for. The victim was a Seattle-based journalist, and he was working to spill the beans on a few big scandals. But will Hadley and the gang be able to prove any of this was grounds for murder?

Recipes included: spiced coffee blossoms and cinnamon pecan biscotti

A Sketchy Demise

Bad muse travels fast...

The people of Stoneybrook are worried when billionaire Victoria VanFranken moves to town. They know that much money usually brings trouble. And they aren't wrong. After less than a month in the valley, Victoria is found murdered in her mansion.

The most surprising part is that the main suspect is one of their own: Suzanne, a local artist and Hadley's best friend, was the last person to see Victoria alive. The evidence overwhelmingly points to Suze, who was hired to paint a portrait of the billionaire and argued with Victoria hours before her death.

Hadley's sure the pieces of art in Suze's gallery aren't the only things being framed, but can she prove it before Suze is out of options?

Recipes included: thumbprint cookies and honey-sweetened grapefruit jam

A Grilled Suspect

No roast for the wicked...

Everyone in Stoneybrook is on edge as a high-profile trial takes place up north in the city of Cascade Ridge. They're excited for justice to be served, and the boost in business as onlookers flock to the Cascade Valley doesn't hurt either. But when the remains of the main suspect in the case show up just outside of Stoneybrook in a burnt vehicle, they realize something sinister is at play.

Was it a freak accident? Or did one of the victims take revenge, just in case the jury wouldn't convict?

With Paul tied up in the case, it's up to Hadley to help Suze with wedding planning. But when the investigation points to a local couple, it's up to Hadley and the gang to hold the real killer's feet to the fire.

Recipes included: rosemary chicken and smashed potatoes
