Synopsis

"A sumptuously written story about culinary ambition, restaurant-world vice, and the frailties of the heart." -- KEVIN CHONG, author of The Double Life of Benson Yu

Restaurateur Teo Wolf's culinary fame is peaking just as a series of scandals and reckless decisions threaten to destroy everything.

Teo's life as a Paris brasserie apprentice is filled with challenges and triumphs, as well as all the regular abuses of slammed commercial kitchens. Still, he rises through the ranks, eventually returning to his hometown of Vancouver to open Rue Véron, a French restaurant that goes on to become a sensation. His second restaurant, Orinoco, is also successful. But on the cusp of opening his third, a news story breaks filled with troubling accusations against Rue Véron's popular executive chef, Frankie.

The media firestorm and subsequent public relations disaster threaten to destroy Teo's empire, as well as his own personal life. And when the compounding consequences lead to unimaginable tragedy, Teo is left to question the impact of both individual action and people acting in great numbers.
