A Killing at La Cucina (A Lucia Dante Mystery)
A PTE Co-Production with Vertigo Theatre
A food critic is poisoned at the exclusive five-star restaurant Fate, known by staff as La Cucina. Who could have done such a heinous thing? Was it celebrated chef, Sebastian. The waiter, the dishwasher? Or perhaps the eccentric billionaire or tech giant? With the help of her AI companion Isabella, world-famous detective Lucia Dante must untangle the web of deceit, petty jealousies, red herrings and hidden relationships to get to the truth. And she has a hidden agenda - revenge.
“I love a good murder mystery – a whodunit and also a whydunit. Working with Vertigo Theatre in Calgary (the country’s leading mystery theatre) gives me the chance to create a twisty tale in a posh setting that will leave the audience guessing.”
