Put the kettle on, thereÕs a mystery brewingÉ
Tea-shop owner. Matchmaker. Detective?

Sixty-year-old self-proclaimed tea expert Vera Wong enjoys nothing more than sipping a good cup of Wulong and doing some healthy ÔdetectiveÕ work on the internet (AKA checking up on her son to see if heÕs dating anybody yet).

But when Vera wakes up one morning to find a dead man in the middle of her tea shop, itÕs going to take more than a strong Longjing to fix things. Knowing sheÕll do a better job than the police possibly could Ð because nobody sniffs out a wrongdoing quite like a suspicious Chinese mother with time on her hands Ð Vera decides itÕs down to her to catch the killer.

Nobody spills the tea like this amateur sleuth.

Knives Out meets KimÕs Convenience for anyone who loves solving mysteries by Richard Osman and Janice Hallett, and watching Death in Paradise and Midsomer Murders.
