Vera Wong is back and as meddling as ever in this follow-up to the hit Vera Wong's Unsolicited
Advice for Murderers. … Ever since a man was found dead in Vera's teahouse life has been
good. For Vera that is. She’s surrounded by loved ones her shop is bustling and best of all
her son Tilly has a girlfriend! All thanks to Vera because Tilly's girlfriend is none other
than Officer Selena Gray. The very same Officer Gray that she had harassed while investigating
the teahouse murder. Still Vera wishes more dead bodies would pop up in her shop but one
mustn't be ungrateful even if one is slightly...bored. Then Vera comes across a distressed
young woman who is obviously in need of her kindly guidance. The young woman is looking for a
missing friend. Fortunately while cat-sitting at Tilly and Selena's Vera finds a treasure
trove: Selena's briefcase. Inside is a file about the death of an enigmatic influencer—who also
happens to be the friend that the young woman was looking for. Online Xander had it all: a
parade of private jets fabulous parties with socialites and a burgeoning career as a social
media influencer. The only problem is after his body is fished out of Mission Bay the police
can't seem to actually identify him. Who is Xander Lin? Nobody knows. Every contact is a dead
end. Everybody claims not to know him not even his parents. Vera is determined to solve
Xander's murder. After all doing so would surely be a big favor to Selena and there is
nothing she wouldn't do for her future daughter-in-law.
