Description
Success has a bitter aftertaste. As the Corner Café thrives, Vivienne Cross launches "Clairbrew," a high-tech rival shop designed to replicate Clara Silvane's prophetic success. While Vivienne uses science to mimic the magic, Clara struggles with the weight of her gift. Theo Jannings's visions are becoming darker, pointing toward a catastrophe at the upcoming Skybridge Gala. With her espresso machine acting up and Simon Darrin worried about the bottom line, Clara must turn to the antique lore of Cy Orrell to understand the true origin of The Moksha Blend. The brew is deepening, and the ripples of foresight are starting to reveal secrets that were meant to stay roasted.
