A food critic is poisoned at the exclusive five-star restaurant Fate, known by staff as La Cucina. Who could have done such a heinous thing? Was it celebrated chef, Sebastian. The waiter, the dishwasher? Or perhaps the eccentric billionaire or tech giant? Detective Lucia Dante must untangle the web of deceit, petty jealousies, red herrings and hidden relationships to get to the truth. A Killing at La Cucina is a darkly witty murder mystery reminiscent of the Knives Out franchise, by PTE’s own Thomas Morgan Jones.
