Richard Osman meets MasterChef. In this cookery school murder is on the menu... 'Delicious
fun!' Tess Gerritsen 'Knife Skills for Beginners is a joy.' S. J. Bennett 'A deliciously dark
slice of murder and mystery.' Chris Whitaker 'If Ruth Rendell had teamed up with Delia Smith
they'd have produced something like this.' J. M. Hall 'Dazzlingly sharp with a wit that
sparkles off the page.' Jane Corry 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.
