Chef Charlie Hunter’s arrival in the beautiful Chilterns is the
fulfilment of a long-held dream: to open her own restaurant in an
idyllic countryside location. The Old Forge sits on the village
green (complete with duck pond and flint-faced houses) and seems
just the place for the high-quality cooking she wants to be known
for. But instead of rural peace and a chance to lick her wounds,
Charlie finds something ugly stirring under the chocolate box
perfection. When a prominent local builder is found dead in
suspicious circumstances, Charlie the outsider becomes a suspect.
And the only way to clear her name seems to be to find out who the
real killer is. Luckily she has allies: her student waitress, a
kitchen porter making up in muscles what he lacks in brain and a
briskly efficient clairvoyant. Using all the craft Charlie’s
learned in kitchens – discipline, timing, preparation and grim
determination – she will be as relentless in her quest to bring a
murderer to justice as she is in creating the perfect meal.
