The Cook

You have been chosen, says Head Chef.

Of all the young people wasting their lives you and you only have been chosen.

At Cook School, Zac dreams about becoming the greatest chef the world has seen.

He thinks he’s on his way when he gets a job as house cook for a wealthy family- the Mistress and Master and their daughters, Melody and Jade.

But when things start to fall apart, Zac knows he must take control.

THE COOK is funny and sad, strange and satirical, and weirdly moving. Wayne Macauley is a bewitching writer.
