Critique: A Dark Psychological Thriller

FINALIST FOR THE AUSTRALIAN SHADOWS AWARD IN LONG FICTION.

What's your flavour?

Sandy Devanche considers himself to be a five star gentleman, although he never gives more than three.

As the harshest food critic in the business, he is feared and respected by the top chefs of the city. On a standard assignment, Sandy visits the experimental restaurant The House of Jacob, run by chef extraordinaire, Jacob Enfer.

What Sandy will experience is a journey beyond flavour and texture, a meal that will change his very existence. The worst thing about the food here is the person eating it.

Critique. It's here to make your life better... or much, much worse.

Come to dinner with Critique, the second of the Mind Terrors series by Shadows Award finalist D. I. Russell.
