Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers
by Jesse Q. Sutanto
-
A corpse in her teahouse is hardly an inconvenience for Vera Wong—it's an opportunity. When the sharp-eyed, sharper-tongued sixty-year-old proprietor of San Francisco’s most lovingly micromanaged teahouse discovers a dead man on her floor, she immediately concludes she can solve the case faster (and better) than the police.
Set in the warm, chaotic world of found family and unsolicited wisdom, Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers is a cozy, comedic mystery where every suspect quickly becomes someone Vera decides needs her guidance. Armed with her thermos of hot tea, a perfectly drawn floor plan, and absolute confidence in her instincts, Vera navigates secrets, misunderstandings, and unexpected friendships—all while inching closer to the truth.
With charm, humor, and a whole lot of auntie energy, Vera proves that meddling is an art form… and sometimes exactly what justice requires.

Enter A Murderer
by Ngaio Marsh
-
The curtain rises on murder in this stylish Golden Age mystery. When Inspector Roderick Alleyn attends the opening night of a new play, he expects drama onstage—not in the wings. But when a prop gun fires a very real bullet in the middle of a performance, the theater becomes a crime scene, and every actor is a suspect.
Set in the glittering, backstabbing world of 1930s London theatre, Enter a Murderer is a clever and quick-witted whodunit where nothing is as it seems and everyone is playing a part. With his trademark blend of elegance, wit, and sharp observation, Alleyn must untangle a tangle of cues, costumes, and lies to unmask the killer hiding in plain sight.
2026 Book List
Coming soon…
We will publish our full 2026 list of books for the club very soon.
July was our last meeting using Meetup. We read Murder by the Sea by Danielle Collins. The novel took place in Kenya and gave all of us a taste of seaside culture in Kenya.
