Vikram Malhotra, Des Pardes’ Michelin Star MasterChef is hated for the flamboyant callousness of both his pomposity and talent. There are many among Viki’s kitchen staff who would like to see him stew and burn. Till, one day, Viki really is lying dead on his kitchen floor.
The news of the MasterChef ’s murder reaches Detective Madhav just as he has finished a light lunch of a mushroom-green-chilli-coriander omelette with thick-cut orange marmalade slathered on fresh rye toast.
He rushes of with Manjari to unravel the mystery of Viki’s killing. The clues that unpack are scant; and a confusingly mixed bag that include professional hostilities, sexual rivalries, espionage, and what was cooked, as also what is indeed cooking.
Join Madhav and Manjari in the first of their thrilling food-and-gore sleuthing adventures.
