About This Book
'Fresh from the Sea' introduces David Jordan and his temperamental partner Linval Larkin, a culinary writer and ex-celebrity chef.
David and Lin own a bed and breakfast establishment called Sandstones, formerly a seventeenth century smugglers inn, from which they also run The Transit of Venus, the smallest seafood restaurant in England.
Lin might be in charge in the kitchen, but it's David who yields ultimate power in the relationship. David's main concern is to protect Lin (as much from himself as anything else) and the relationship they share.
In this first story Lin is having a stressful day. He encounters prophetic bees, a mysterious sea mist, an irksome guest and an irate partner.
Worse - when the main ingredient for several of his planned and advertised dishes turns savagely against him, he becomes distraught because it looks like the restaurant will have to close. Help comes from an unexpected quarter.
