Aftertaste - Lavelle Daria

A food story to binge. A ghost story to devour. A love story to savour.When dead-end dishwasher Kostya discovers the ability to summon spirits through the food he cooks, he embarks on a journey to open a New York City restaurant that serves closure - something he's craved for as long as he can remember.There are just three problems: Kostya has some ghosts of his own. His advancing menu of spirit cuisine is threatening the stability of the Afterlife itself. He's falling in love with Maura, a party psychic with her own secret connection to the Afterlife - who also happens to be the one person who knows he must be stopped. A bittersweet cocktail of humour and heart, Aftertaste is an imaginative odyssey through food and love, life and death: the things that sustain us, connect us, transport us, and remind us who we are.
