Dead Cold Brew by Cleo Coyle
3.0
I have enjoyed several books in this series but this one just a bit less. Clare Cosi's West Village coffeehouse in NY appeals to me, but there was a bit less of the coffee side of things in this book. The mystery revolves around the Andrea Doria, an Italian ocean liner that sank in 1956, and a missing jewel. There were too many "mysteries" going on in this story for me - a sniper after cops, the jewel, switched identities and more.
This would have been 3.5 stars for me except for an unforgivable pun and an uncorrected error by the narrator. When I heard the line " P.P. really could piss me off" I groaned. At one point the narrator reads the wrong word, says 'let's do it again' and repeats with a correction, and at the end she actually read the same line twice. Jeez. Is there no quality control?
