Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Trouble is brewing for cousins Yale and Celine Yee after a hot pot dinner gets overheated and ends in murder in this second novel of the L.A. Night Market series by Jennifer J. Chow.
Yale and Celine Yee's food stall business is going so well that they've been invited to join an exclusive dinner with the local restaurant owners association. The members gather together for a relaxing hot pot feast...until Jeffery Vue, president of the group, receives a literal shock to his system and dies.
Everyone at the meal is a suspect, but the authorities are homing in on family friend Ai Ho, owner of the restaurant where Jeffery was killed-and Yale's dad is a close second on their list. Yale and Celine step up to the plate and investigate the dinner attendees- the association's ambitious VP, a familiar frenemy, a ramen king, a snacks shopkeeper, and a second-generation restaurateur. It's up to the detecting duo to figure out what really happened before their friends and family have to close their businesses for good.
Includes recipes.
When the president of the restaurant owners association dies during a group dinner, everyone at the meal is a suspect, and cousins Yale and Celine Yee stir the pot as they investigate the dinner attendees to keep their friends and family out of hot water.
