Summary
Carl Morck is a brilliant detective with an attitude problem. Rose and Hardy have a simple solution: get him laid. The trouble is, Carl only seems interested in the enigmatic barista down the street – a man who makes the perfect coffee, unnervingly sharp observations, and a tremendous effort to keep everyone at arm’s length. Between cold cases, hot coffee and all the things that lie between, Carl might just find more than he bargained for.
