About this listen
The waitress, the chef, and the chef's wife may all lovingly describe the food, but they agree on little else as their three voices reveal a story of power and complicity, and the courage it takes to face the truth.
When Hannah learns that famed chef Daniel Costello is facing accusations of sexual assault, she's thrown back to the summer she spent waitressing at his high-end Dublin restaurant when she was a young college student—the plush splendor of the dining rooms, the wild parties after service, the sizzling tension of the kitchens. But Hannah also remembers how the attention from Daniel soon morphed from kindness into something darker.
Now the restaurant is shuttered and Daniel tries to understand how his life is now completely out of his control. His wife Julie is hiding from paparazzi, trying to come to terms with the legal case while suddenly questioning her life and marriage as she attempts to protect her two sons.
Surrounded by the wreckage of the past, Daniel, Julie, and Hannah must reconsider what happened at the restaurant.
Beautifully written and told in three voices, this novel explores uncomfortable truths about our changing social norms with nuance and complexity.

brilliant
Listened to the whole book in one day . gripping. Difficult subject dealt with transparently from a number of different perspectives. Well written and the narration was excellent. The characters were well developed - i found the wife's perspective/ dilemmas the most interesting. Would recommend - don't want to give away any spoilers.

Utterly boring!
I can’t believe the good ratings for this book. It’s the most boring listen I’ve attempted in a long time - the characters are awful and I find I really couldn’t care less about any of them so returning after ploughing through only a couple of hours.
