Book of Interest: Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

At the end of July, I posted a Book of Interest for Blood in the Water by Tiffany D. Jackson and I said I would post the second mystery book that I was interested in reading the next day. However, I took a few days to relax but now I'm back and here's the second mystery book, Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers by Jesse Q. Sutanto. The description for this seems interesting with Vera determined to solve the murder of the man who was found dead in her tea shop. And she suspects one of her customers may be the killer and I wonder which one. I love an interesting mystery because was the guy murdered at the tea shop or just placed there? See, interesting.

I will be adding this to my list because I really want to read it.

Book: Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers (Vera Wong book #1) by Jesse Q. Sutanto

Description:

A lonely shopkeeper takes it upon herself to solve a murder in the most peculiar way in this captivating mystery by Jesse Q. Sutanto, bestselling author of Dial A for Aunties.

Vera Wong is a lonely little old lady—ah, lady of a certain age—who lives above her forgotten tea shop in the middle of San Francisco’s Chinatown. Despite living alone, Vera is not needy, oh no. She likes nothing more than sipping on a good cup of Wulong and doing some healthy detective work on the Internet about what her Gen-Z son is up to.

Then one morning, Vera trudges downstairs to find a curious thing—a dead man in the middle of her tea shop. In his outstretched hand, a flash drive. Vera doesn’t know what comes over her, but after calling the cops like any good citizen would, she sort of . . . swipes the flash drive from the body and tucks it safely into the pocket of her apron. Why? Because Vera is sure she would 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 knows the killer will be back for the flash drive; all she has to do is watch the increasing number of customers at her shop and figure out which one among them is the killer.

What Vera does not expect is to form friendships with her customers and start to care for each and every one of them. As a protective mother hen, will she end up having to give one of her newfound chicks to the police?
