Cozy murder mystery in the best way! I love the found family relationship building in this book and so many of the characters. I especially loved the relationship built between Emma and Vera, so heartwarming! The "who did it" took me by suprise, I think I was so engrossed

in finding out each main characters' story (that ultimately absolved each of them of murder)

that I didn't think all that significantly about who actually did it...

This cozy murder mystery is so funny. Vera Wong is the Chinese grandma that everyone wants, sassy, stern and always cooking a delicious feast. She is confident that she can solve the mystery of a dead body in her tea shop better than the cops. I just adore her and the family that she creates around herself.
