I'm surprised not to see more comments about guessing the culprit. That's the part that bothered me as well. I liked it overall. Chuckled several times and liked the characters though
I haven't finished. I'm having a hard time getting past the portrayal of a 60 year old as a "little old lady". Also her shop seems like it's stuck in the 1950s. Can the author do math? Published in 2023, it would mean that Vera as born in 1963. She is a baby boomer. Her shop could not possibly have opened until the 1983 when she was 20, unless it was handed down to her by her parents. Yeesh.
