Join us for a discussion of "Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers" by Jesse Q. Sutanto.
Book Summary: 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’s dating anybody yet).
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.
