Description
Eight unlikely chefs thrust together, a washed-up TV presenter, a large cash prize and an unforgiving Northumberland landscape. Add to this a previously forgotten ghost from the past and what could possibly go wrong?
Introducing a new and daring competition that everyone is just dying to be part of. A brutal and often darkly comic tale about why chefs should never be left to their own devices. Scores will be settled, friendships formed (and lost) and all in the pursuit of fifty thousand pounds.
Will anyone live to tell the tale? Hunting and foraging for food along with plummeting temperatures and the risk of exposure, there can be only one winner.
