Death by Café Mocha by Alex Erickson

2.0

It was decent, but...
Spoiler I feel like the suspect pool was deliberately drawn out unnecessarily. Like the protag kept on going through 'well the victim slept with this woman and this woman and this woman, but who could it be???' when there were already scenes that hinted at him sleeping with a man and I feel like it was just stupid of her not to think of the possibility sooner, especially when another gay couple is mentioned in passing and she has no reaction to it (ie. gay relationships are normalized to her). It just bugged me because it seemed like it was being avoided only to keep the mystery going and for no other reason. Like if you're going to include diversity in your stories, great, but don't use it as a plot twist.
