Clare
Cosi's new friend, millionaire David Mintzer, has an offer no New York barista
could turn down: an all-expenses-paid summer away from the sticky city. At his
Hamptons mansion, she will relax, soak up the sun, and, oh yes, train the staff
of his new restaurant. So Clare packs up her daughter, her former
mother-in-law, and her special recipe for iced coffee for what she hopes will
be one de-latte-ful summer.

Soon,
Clare tends the coffee bar at her first Hamptons gala. But the festivities come
to a bitter end when an employee turns up dead in David's bathroom—a botched
attempt on the millionaire's life. Thanks to the Fourth of July fireworks, no
one heard any gunshots, and the police are stuck in holiday traffic. Concerned
for everyone's safety, Clare begins to investigate. What she finds will keep
her up at night—and it's not the java jitters.
