Things for Renee Landis are finally looking up. She just quit her dead-end job at a chicken shop after landing the coveted role of junior chef at London’s pristine NOVA restaurant.

But it's not the restaurant that draws Renee in - it's the executive chef. Gracie Fitzgerald is as legendary as she is secretive, known for her succulent, signature dishes and the notorious methods in which she runs her kitchen.

Praise for Maneater

Lip-smackingly entertaining, MANEATER cooks up a tense, tart and thrillingly sadistic kitchen nightmare.

Leigh Radford

A meaty mash up of The Menu and A Certain Hunger, you’ll be devouring Maneater right to its (very) bloody end.

Jessie Elland

Enormous fun and completely compulsive, Maneater invites you into the world of fine dining and asks what you’re willing to swallow. Stomach-turning and deeply satisfying in equal measures.
