"Konstantin Duhovny can't exactly see ghosts, but he can taste their favorite foods. He has kept these aftertastes a secret for most of his life, but one night, he discovers that he can reunite people with their deceased loved ones--at least for the time it takes them to eat a dish he's prepared. He thinks his life's purpose might be to offer closure to grieving strangers and sets out to learn all he can by entering the New York culinary scene. But as his kitchen skills catch up with his ambitions, Kostya is too blind to see the catastrophe looming in the Afterlife. And the one person who knows Kostya must be stopped also happens to be falling in love with him."--
