ON THE COVER SHOT IN THE DARK By Cleo Coyle As Village Blend manager Clare Cosi fixes a date for her wedding, everyone else seems to be making dates through smartphone swipes. Clare has mixed feelings about these match-ups happening in her coffeehouse. But business is booming, and Clare works hard to keep the espresso shots flowing. Then one night, another kind of shot leaves a dead body for her to find. The corpse is an entrepreneur and heartbreaker who used dating apps with reckless abandon. The NYPD quickly arrests one of the deceased’s recent conquests. But Clare has doubts, fearing the real killer will strike again. Now Clare is "swiping" through suspects in her own shop--with the help of her globetrotting ex-husband, a man who's spent his life hunting for coffee and women.
