Carol chose Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers, an Edgar Award, Audie Award, and Libby Award winning novel, by Jesse Q. Sutanto. Called "a compulsively readable story with intrigue, humor, and..heart."

Vera Wong is a lonely little old lady—ah, lady of a certain age—who lives above her forgotten tea shop in the middle of San Francisco’s Chinatown.

One morning, Vera trudges downstairs to find a crime has occurred in the middle of her tea shop. Vera doesn’t know what comes over her, but after calling the cops like any good citizen would, she sort of . . . swipes some evidence and tucks it safely into the pocket of her apron. Why? Because Vera is sure she would do a better job than the police possibly could, and because nobody sniffs out a wrongdoing quite like a suspicious Chinese mother with time on her hands.
