The Hunger and the Howling of Killian Lone

Roald Dahl meets American Psycho in a gripping tale about the filth behind fine dining There are no ghosts, there are only stories too stubborn to die There was a time when everyone in the country knew my name. I was the greatest chef in the world. But today no-one has heard of Killian Lone. This is my story. It must be told, now, for the final time. It begins in my boyhood. In this very kitchen... " Hell's kitchen has a new head chef - Max Mann is one of the most compellingly repulsive villains in recent fiction and I rooted for his whipping-boy turned nemesis, Killian Lone, on every page. This is a pitch-dark, highly original fable about family, ambition and the redemptive power of cooking. By turns enchanting and grotesque, I couldn't tear myself away from it." Erin Kelly, author of The Poison Tree
