A captivating novel of Renaissance Italy detailing the mysterious life of Bartolomeo Scappi, the legendary chef to several popes and author of one of the bestselling cookbooks of all time, and the nephew who sets out to discover his late uncleโ€™s secretsโ€”including the identity of the noblewoman Bartolomeo loved until he died.

When Bartolomeo Scappi dies in 1577, he leaves his vast estateโ€”properties, money, and his positionโ€”to his nephew and apprentice Giovanni. He also gives Giovanni the keys to two strongboxes and strict instructions to burn their contents. Despite Scappiโ€™s dire warning that the information concealed in those boxes could put Giovanniโ€™s life and others at risk, Giovanni is compelled to learn his uncleโ€™s secrets. He undertakes the arduous task of decoding Scappiโ€™s journals and uncovers a history of deception, betrayal, and murderโ€”all to protect an illicit love affair.

As Giovanni pieces together the details of Scappiโ€™s past, he must contend with two rivals who have joined forcesโ€”his brother Cesare and Scappiโ€™s former protรฉgรฉ, Domenico Romoli, who will do anything to get his hands on the late chefโ€™s recipes.

With luscious prose that captures the full scale of the sumptuous feasts for which Scappi was known, The Chefโ€™s Secret serves up power, intrigue, and passion, bringing Renaissance Italy to life in a delectable fashion
