Description
Brielle Petitfour loves to cook, but with a sick mother and mounting bills, her dream of becoming a chef feels out of reach. When her mother loses her job, Brielle seizes an opportunity, using her culinary talents to earn extra money by cooking for wealthy elites. Her patrons praise her unique flavors and textures, never guessing her secret ingredient: human flesh. Now, Brielle wields her previously hidden zombie abilities to exact revenge on the one percent who have caused her family pain. This modern fable, inspired by Haitian zombie lore, scrutinizes the socioeconomic and racial inequity at the heart of society. Just like Brielle’s clients, you’ll be left asking: What’s for dinner?
