Sometimes the New Year begins with a bang… And sometimes it ends in murder. It’s New Year's Eve, and time for a glitzy party! Lorelei French and her date will be making the two-hour drive from her coffee shop, French Roast, in Wildborne, WI, to help with the festivities, since her mom, Oneida - the hostess with the mostest - had a nasty fall and broke her ankle, just before Christmas. Before horns can be tooted, and Auld Lang Syne can be sung however, a guest collapses and cannot be revived. Between the death at the party and Oneida suspecting that her fall was no accident, the duo’s mother/daughter bonding time turns into a sleuthing affair. When Latte, Lorelei’s eerily prescient cat, stands guard outside Oneida’s room, Lorelei knows that she has to hurry and solve the mystery…before someone tries to attack her mother again. Can she solve the crime in time, or will the New Year begin in the worst possible way? Find out in this fast-paced Cozy Mystery!

https://www.facebook.com/Patti-Bennin... When Cozy Mystery author, Patti Benning, isn’t busy plotting the deaths of multiple fictitious characters, she loves to spend time hiking with her rescue dog, Max, who is her bestest writing buddy. ​Patti loves to cook and the food in her books has been tried and tested in her very own kitchen. She’s technologically shy, and stays away from social media a great deal, because it makes her feel more awkward and introverted than meeting someone face to face. ​Writing is the perfect job for her because in her books, she gets to explore all the topics she loves, food, animals, crafts and reading. She loves her readers dearly, and is thankful for the opportunity to share with them through her work.
