Can Lana Lee manage her family's restaurant and figure out who killed her friends?
Lana Lee
Lana Lee is back with this new installment. She is trying her hardest to be at the restaurant for her parents while also trying to figure out who killed her new best friend and her husband. Wow, Lana had a lot going on for her this time around. From her parents springing the trip and telling her that she is in charge to her friends being murdered next door. I liked how Lana stepped up and didn't whine to her parents or tell them that she couldn't run the restaurant for them. What I like about Lana is that she is such a great character and is doing what needs to be done. Granted probably begrudgingly, but she was running the restaurant quite well. There isn't anything that I don't like about Lana.
The Mystery
Wow, I felt terrible for Kimmy, who finds the newlywed couple next door to the noodle restaurant. It was confused for a murder-suicide until proven it wasn't. Lana ends up working the case when she wasn't trying to. Not as many red herrings in this one, but it was tough to solve until the clues started to add up, and the motives got clearer. Another great mystery that Ms. Chien cooked up.
5 Stars
Dim Sum of All Fears by Vivien Chien is a wonderfully planned culinary cozy mystery, and now I can't wait to dive into the next one. Ms. Chien does a fantastic job, and I love all of the characters in here. I am rating this at five stars and recommend it to anyone that reads cozy mysteries.
