Death by Dumpling
Author Vivien Chien
I found myself craving Chinese food on multiple occasions while reading this book!
The basics: Lana Lee returns home after breaking off a bad relationship. She works at her family's restaurant. When the property manager is murdered, she finds herself investigating the death to save the reputation of Ho-Lee Noodle House.
This story is a great start for the Noodle Shop Mystery series. I like the characters and the setting. The mystery moved along at a nice pace, and the characters for the series were introduced and developed enough for me to want to read the next book.
I've had this series waiting on my bookshelf for some time. I'm glad I finally started reading!
I have already started reading the second book - Dim Sum of All Fears. Enjoying it! And I see a couple Chinese food runs in the near future!
