Stumptown ― The Case of a Cup of Joe

Portland's best private investigator Dex Parios is back and this time, the case is a real grind. When she picks up a simple assignment to escort a package of highly-prized coffee beans, Dex has no idea that she's stepping into the web of the Barista Mafia and eccentric billionaires with no compunction about using force to get the most coveted coffee around. And to top it all off, her sister is in town. Join Eisner Award-winner Greg Rucka and series artist Justin Greenwood (The Fuse) in this for this new softcover edition of The Case of a Cup of Joe, the fourth case in the critically-acclaimed Stumptown series.
