Ah this was a GREAT read! After briefly meeting the author recently, I knew I had to get into it and I’m so glad I did 🥰

I liked every member of Vera’s family, even Tilly 😂 

Vera is every (slightly) frustrating but well-meaning auntie with a heart of gold ❤️

I really would not have expected Alex Chen, the tea shop regular, to be the murderer! 😳 I did go back and read his descriptions of Marshall and Oliver though and I suppose it made sense 🥺

4 out of 5 stars for me, thank you ✨ Looking forward to reading more of Jesse Sutanto’s stories 🥳
