"Brielle Petitfour loves to cook. But with a chronically sick mother and bills to pay, becoming a chef isn't exactly a realistic career path. When Brielle's mom suddenly loses her job, Brielle steps in and uses her culinary skills to earn some extra money. The rich families who lover her cooking praise her use of unique flavors and textures, which keep everyone guessing what's in Brielle's dishes. The secret ingredient? Human flesh. This smart, biting new horror inspired by Haitian zombie lore scrutinizes the socioeconomic and racial inequity that is the foundation of our modern times. Just like Brielle's clients, it will have you asking: What's for dinner?" -- Jacket flap.
