Licio Gella is one of Rome's top private chefs, and he's disappeared. For more than fifteen years he's cooked for an elite group of businessmen and Vatican officials - but his clients never suspected that over the course of hundreds of meals their trusted chef had been recording their dinner conversations.

What they discover is their worst nightmare: Licio has compiled an historical document of corruption and deceit.

Operating a restaurant in central Missouri under an assumed name, Licio is suspicious when a freelance writer wants to conduct interviews with the restaurant's cooks on the pretext of researching a book on food.

Chef Chronicle is the first of a trilogy. Yacht Prospect Due, the second in the series, details the life of a yacht crew working in the Mediterranean on a boat with no budget, thanks to the events that unfold in Chef Chronicle. The final book, The Prospect Theatre, tells the story of three brothers who come to St. Louis as master cabinetmakers and build the Prospect Theatre in 1926. That building later becomes the restaurant setting for Chef Chronicle.
