Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
A recipe for disaster.
When chef Paul Delamare agrees to help his old friend Christian by teaching at an exclusive residential cookery school in Belgravia, the only thing he expects his students to murder is his taste buds. But on the first night, the unthinkable happens: someone turns up dead...
The school rests on a knife-edge.
Could one of his students be the killer? Or Rose - the owner of the school, a woman with secrets and a murky past? The police are convinced Paul is the culprit. After all, he's good with a blade, was first on the scene - and everyone knows what chefs are really like.
It all boils down to murder.
The students are sharpening their knives and if Paul can't solve the mystery fast - as well as teach them how to make a perfect hollandaise sauce - he'll be next to get the chop.

very good, like the cooking analogies
ending could have been a little more thought out, all ends tied up quick, but still a good listen!

A bit of an old fashioned who dunnit!
Not sure I enjoyed the narrator’s voice, but a bit of a mystery Agatha Christie with colourful characters and a good old fashioned twist. I learned a few bits about cooking too. An easy fun read.

Good Title & Unusual Setting
Interesting story line and setting and I liked the title. Sadly I didn’t like any of the characters so was glad to get to the end when it all came together.

Old fashioned mystery with a twist.
Light and perfectly paced who-done-it with a mix of cookery skills. Excellent narrator too.

A recipe for success!
Took a while to warm to, but once I committed, I was hooked. Not gory, deliciously amusing, sufficiently complicated, wonderfully humane & I will be using the last cake recipe 👏🏻👏🏻

The mystery
Good story. Police bit weak. Characters well structured reader was good but should avoid; or practice accents

A good easy listening mystery tail
I’m a foodie and a book lover so this ticked both of them. I am new to crime books with this only being my 3rd but I really enjoyed this. Nothing too over the top (hence the easy listening), but a good amount of twists.

Cheffing murder romp
My late husband was a chef for 45 years. I enjoyed all the food and culinary skill references woven into a great whodunnit. Entertaining! Look forward to book 2!
