On her way to report a scam, Vera meets a young woman hovering outside the police station, uncertain whether to report a missing person. Of course, Vera provides comfort and undertakes to look for the missing young man herself but soon discovers he is dead.
The story follows the formula established in the 1st book but does allow some darker elements to creep in despite the general level of hilarity - it is if anything even funnier than the 1st.

Vera Wong Zhuzhu should be having the time of her life.

I‘m super excited to dive into this #AuldLangSpine list from @PurpleyPumpkin come January! It‘s always a sign of a good list when I‘ve already read and loved a few titles (Burial Rites, Thursday Murder Club, Hyunam-Dong Bookshop), and several more are already on my TBR. I‘ll start with the six above, and see how far I get! And I‘m planning to save The Summer Book for… well, summer. 😊

So-so read for me... So I won't read the rest of the series.
While there is a lot of creativity, I wasn't much taken by the plot or by the universe created...

Ning would do anything for her sister. Including pretending to be their late mother's actual apprentice and attending the shennong trials in the capital. If she wins she will not only be the official court Sheenong-shi; but will be granted a favor from the imperial princess herself.
This book is so beautifully written. So full of plot, intrigue, and the power of love.
