Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"...has everything I love in a novel...Curl up with this one by the fire and enjoy." -J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest and national bestsellers Saturday Night at the Late-Night Supper Club and The Lager Queen of Minnesota"Readers will relish the abundant descriptions of food and drink. A flavorful mélange of intriguing characters and Top Chef-style reality TV." -Kirkus ReviewsWhen the enigmatic Forager Chefs Club accepts a contract to host a terroir cooking competition, five people are selected to participate in what could be a life-changing event. Each has motivations and histories that could help or hinder. There is Celeste, young and sheltered, raised on an island by her hippie mother and relegated to kitchen prep duties at a prestigious resort hotel; Christian, who left culinary school to care for his dying mother in a city struggling to survive; Blaise, an up-and-coming chef who sees himself as the benevolent caretaker of his twin brother with autism while others perceive it as exploitation; Eden, who brings pride and talent to the dinners she cooks at her father's mission in Detroit; and Daniel, a private chef fighting his in-laws' attempts to declare him an unfit father after his wife's tragic death. As the competition gets underway, it doesn't take long for alliances, strategies, and mind games to evolve.Filled with heart and sprinkled throughout with foraging and cooking tips, The Forager Chefs Club shows that where food comes from matters, and what comes out of the kitchen can feed more than just the body.
