Hops and Homicide (Cherry's Cozy Capers, #4)

Murder's on tap—and so is trouble.
After a messy past and a tragic fire, Cherry Brewster is ready to rebuild—her brewery, her peace of mind, and maybe even her future. But just as her small-town taproom starts pouring promise again, a rival's death at a glamorous beer launch threatens to derail it all. Worse? Cherry's the one who tried to save him... and now she's the prime suspect.
Between shady distribution deals, an ex-lover turned felon with unfinished business, and a hidden identity she thought was buried for good, Cherry must tread carefully. In a town where hops aren't the only thing fermenting, secrets are bubbling to the surface—and someone wants Cherry out of the picture for good.
Can Cherry clear her name, protect those she loves, and stop the killer before the next body drops?
Perfect for fans of smart, layered heroines, slow-burn suspense, and small-town mysteries with bite—and a splash of craft beer.
