Minutes after meeting with Nicole, Dr. Michael Patterson is found dead in his office at the University of New Jersey - and Nicole is immediately thrust into the spotlight as the number one suspect for Dr. Patterson's murder.

Despite the troubling circumstances surrounding the case - especially since Dr. Patterson had just informed Nicole of his refusal to hire her for the Professor of Practice position, a job she had always dreamed of - Nicole and her Cannoli Cafe friends set out to prove her innocence and identify the real murderer of the department chairperson.

Join Cannoli Cafe owner Nicole, her warm and spunky friend Lia, and all the charming Cannoli Cafe friends as they embark on a clean cozy sleuthing adventure.

This is the first book of the new Cannoli Cafe Investigations series, set in the idyllic, small town of Rosewood, New Jersey (told from Nicole's perspective). This book can be read as a stand-alone.
