I adore books that explore a different culture or place on the globe and still delivers a great mystery.

This book does just that.

Set in modern Singapore, Auntie Lee is an older widow lady who manages a neighborhood restaurant (almost like a deli) who solves mystery on the side.

This is a totally delightful mystery, delving into Singaporean society, and it left me wanting to try some of the dishes that Auntie Lee gleefully described.

I would love to read the rest of the books in the series, however, I have this problem with paying more that $3 per book for a book I'm going to finish in less than a few days. I will snap them up if I see them on sale.

5 strong stars!
