A frustrated writer who spends his day drinking coffee at his favorite local cafe+a7, Madeline's, Jacob Burns becomes embroiled in a baffling mystery linked to some of the finest families in Saratoga, New York, after an eccentric regular at the cafe+a7 gives him a mysterious key, only to drop dead minutes later. Original.

Having recently made a first-time, million-dollar deal in Hollywood, Saratoga Springs screenwriter Jack Burns takes a writing hiatus. When a local crazy-acting writer falls dead at Jack's feet in an espresso bar called Madeline's after handing him a safe-deposit key, Jack cannot resist investigating. In a breezy, pleasantly clipped narrative filled with excitement and wit, the foolhardy sleuth tumbles from one hair-raising escapade to the next, finally concluding that someone must have murdered that guy and might be looking for Jack, too. The perfect antidote for a rainy day; for paperback collections. [Winner of the Malice Domestic Award for Best Debut Novel.]
