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.

Critic reviews

“Great characters and a delightful mystery filled with luscious descriptions of food.”—Kirkus Reviews

“The second installment of Chow’s cozy mystery series set at a California market, Hot Pot Murder is as charming and delightful as the first…Spending time with these characters is a treat, but—full warning—this book will make you hungry.”—Parade

Jennifer Chow has such a generous, kind touch in her descriptions of the families at the center of this story. These are all characters with whom I would love to spend even more time. Of course, the food is amazing (really, just delicious sounding), and I appreciated the insight into this group of Asian merchants who are (almost) all working together. I did figure the mystery out quickly but that didn’t diminish the pleasure of this read at all. The resolution is clever and once it was reaching it’s peak I could not stop until the book was complete. I highly recommend The Hot Pot Murder to all cozy mystery readers!

Family filled with love, plus food!
