I love coming back to this series. Maybe it is all the food talk or maybe it is the main character that seems to bumble her way through her amateur sleuthing, but there is something charming about Lana Lee and the input from the Mahjong Matrons. Maybe that could be a second series for Vivien Chien, something centered on the matrons who breakfast together and supply a fountain of knowledge from the comfort of their favorite booth.
The first outdoor Asian Night Market of the summer is in full swing when an explosion rips through the event. Turns out that propane tanks on food trucks can be tricky and when a body is found in the rubble, a man who was seen fighting with his wife, starts everyone gossiping when it comes to light that the two had a contentious marriage and on a previous occasion the police had gotten involved. Is it possible that his death was intentional?
It isn’t until Lana, with her murder book and overcurious mind, starts putting the clues together and asks one too many questions, do the pieces fall together and once again Lana’s life is on the line.
