About this listen

From USA Today best-selling author Harper Lin: the highly anticipated 10th book in the popular Cape Bay Cafe Mysteries

Fran throws Matt a birthday party at the cafe and invites all of Cape Bay to attend. Halfway into the party, many of the guests become sick, and some end up in the ER.

Fran fears the cause was food poisoning, but Detective Mike Stanton informs her that it was actual poison - someone at the party intentionally poisoned the pastries or punch.

Did the perp mean to target one person or to hurt as many people as possible? Did they want to shut down the cafe and destroy her business? Was it someone she knew or a sick stranger? Whoever it was, Fran had likely met the culprit at her party. And that makes her shudder.

When another partygoer ends up dead days later, Fran is on high alert. She must find the murderer before anyone else gets hurt.

Fran, Sammie, Matt, and Mike are back, and I couldn't be happier. A joint birthday party open to the whole town is a piece of cake for Fran until virtually everyone becomes deathly ill, and so begins an adventure that will keep you entertained, even if you figure out who did it. I cannot wait for the next book.

Loved It

The overall story was good. A little too much time on the lead character's emotional state and personal relationship. It got tedious.
Although the reader isn't the same as previous books it helped to speed up the delivery. That helped change her tone a bit.

New Reader

I like the characters, the new narrator sounds a lot older than a 3? Year old sadly distracted me so I didn’t enjoy it nearly as much as the other books.

Ive enjoyed the series

The new narrator made the flimsy plot almost intolerable to finish. Without spoiling the story for other readers, I must say that it is highly improbable and totally unimaginable that someone would go to such lengths to kill for so ridiculous a reason.

Poor choice of narrator

This book had me on edge. I wasn’t sure if I like it as well as the others since it was so intense. The ending was a bit abrupt but I can’t wait to go on to the next one.

Love the Cape Bay series

Until the narrator changed with this book. The new narrator sounds like a squeaky 6 year old. I couldn’t even get through the first chapter.

Loved the series

The Narrarator in the Previous Books was a lot better. Love all the cape bay books so far...

Great series!!

I've really enjoyed this series for the most part. Changing the narrator in this last one was disappointing. The characters are off with new voices, making the flow inconsistent.

Punch, pastries and poison
