Publisher's Synopsis
Does our hero finally make peace with his abusive father? No. But does he learn to forgive and move on, becoming a better man? Also no.
Chef Johnny's rise to fame coincides with his descent into madness. As his restaurant becomes the toast of the town, the people who let it happen expect favors in return-like silence. But the conscience he didn't know he had weighs heavy. If he just keeps his mouth shut a little while longer, he can buy his way out of his sour marriage and be with his true love. But would she even want him if she knew about his other secret life?
On top of that, his estranged father invites him, out of the blue, to his wedding-meaning this thirty-year-old boy is about to have a wicked stepmother.
