*SHORTLISTED FOR THE VAL McDERMID DEBUT AWARD 2024* Richard Osman meets MasterChef. In this cookery school, murder is on the menu... 'If Agatha Christie were to go on Masterchef, this novel would be the result.' Clare Pooley ‘A deliciously dark slice of murder and mystery.’ Chris Whitaker A recipe for disaster. When chef Paul Delamare takes a job 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. The police are convinced Paul is the culprit. After all, he’s good with a blade, was first on the scene – and everyone knows it doesn’t take much to push a chef over the edge. To prove his innocence, he must find the killer. Could it be one of his students? Or the owner of the school – a woman with secrets and a murky past? It all boils down to murder. If Paul can’t solve the mystery fast – as well as teach his students how to make a perfect hollandaise sauce – he’ll be next to get the chop. Readers love Knife Skills for Beginners! ‘The perfect blend of The Great British Baking Show and Agatha Christie.’ ‘A fun mystery full of quirks and fun characters that will leave you guessing.’ ‘A welcome addition to the cosy crime genre.’ ‘Sharp, incisive, cutting - and that’s just the prose!’
