The meddling auntie mystery that won the Edgar Award — warm, witty, and impossible to put down.
Vera Wong is a lonely tea shop owner in San Francisco's Chinatown who finds a dead man on her shop floor one morning. Instead of leaving it to the police, she appoints herself chief investigator — inviting every suspect back for tea and interrogating them with the subtlety of a sledgehammer wrapped in a floral apron.
