In the Kitchen written by Monica Ali. 436 pages.
Written by the author of Brick Lane ( which I have not read), this title had great reviews. The reader is pulled inside the dark and gritty world of Gabriel Lightfoot, a successful and ambitious chef. Gabe has a lot on his plate: sick father, girl friend that he wants to marry, young mystery girl who is sharing his flat, plans for a new restaurant, staffing issues and the recent accidental(?) death of an employee. This did not satisfy my craving for a delicious mystery -- perhaps I was too tired from the holidays to savor the somewhat slow pacing.
