Trade paperback edition in very good condition. Vera Wong series #1.
“In Chinese culture, respect only flows in one direction, from the younger to the older, like a river. The older generation doesn’t owe the younger ones respect; if any is given, it is done so out of kindness and generosity, not necessity.”
Put the kettle on. There’s a mystery brewing.
Sixty-year-old self-proclaimed tea expert Vera Wong enjoys nothing more than sipping a good cup of Wulong and doing some healthy ‘detective’ work on the internet (AKA checking up on her son to see if he is dating anybody yet).
But when Vera wakes up one morning to find a dead man in the middle of her tea shop, it’s going to take more than a strong Longjing to fix things. Knowing she’ll do a better job than the police possibly could—because nobody sniffs out a wrongdoing quite like a suspicious Chinese mother with time on her hands—Vera decides it’s down to her to catch the killer.
Nobody spills the tea like this amateur sleuth.
Read Alikes for Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers: The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman; Arsenic and Adobo by Mia P. Manansala; Finlay Donovan Is Killing It by Elle Cosimano
