Jesse Q. Sutanto: Vera Wong’s Guide to Snooping (on a Dead Man)
Vera Wong #2
These books are like comfy, beautiful pillows for your brain, and, let me tell you, these days that’s not a bad thing. Vera, the heroine of the series, is the 60 something widow who, in the first book, finds a dead body in the middle of her formerly obscure tea shop, ultimately finding friends and a purpose in the act of solving a murder. Vera is opinionated, bossy, maternal, and an excellent cook, who as the book opens, gets a scam phone call which cons her into sharing her social security number and even a photo of her driver’s licence.
