Kausar Khan is a 57 year old widow, whose adult daughter and granddaughter live in Toronto. She finds herself returning there after many years when her daughter is accused of murdering her unscrupulous landlord.

Although this is billed as a cosy mystery with "detective aunty" being a meddlesome older woman who discovers things that others miss, it actually has more substance than that. The story incorporate themes that include mental health, grief and family dynamics.

All in all an entertaining read, if not quite a cosy mystery, this gets 3.5 stars.
