Bone In The Throat
The first novel from the bestselling author of Kitchen Confidential.
All is not well at the Dreadnought Grill. The chef has a smack habit, the owner has been set up by the FBI, and in the midst of this, the sous-chef Tommy is just trying to do his job.
As depraved as it is hilarious, Anthony Bourdain's first novel is street smart and spiced with drugged-up savvy, foul-mouthed feds, and salty mob speak.
With a cast of unforgettables like the hitman who covers himself in clingfilm to avoid leaving fingerprints and a plot with more twists than a plate of spaghetti, Bone in the Throat rocks through the streets of Manhattan at a blistering pace.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Anthony Bourdain's Bone In The Throat is praised for its engaging and witty take on gangster fiction, set in the vibrant world of New York chefs. Reflecting a blend of culinary and crime elements, the book is described as both sharp and humorous with dialogue as cutting as the kitchen tools Bourdain metaphorically wields. Readers find it a delightfully spicy caper, perfect for a relaxed summer read.
