Service by Sarah Gilmartin

'The exhilarating and exhausting life of a high-end restaurant is beautifully recreated' Irish Independent

When Hannah learns that star chef Daniel Costello is facing accusations of sexual assault, she's thrown back to her summer waitressing at his high-end Dublin restaurant. A glamorous world of talent and testosterone, where attention from Daniel morphed into something darker...

Now the restaurant is shuttered and Daniel is faced with the reality of the courtroom. His wife Julie is hiding from paparazzi lenses behind the bedroom curtains.

Surrounded by the wreckage of the past, their three voices reveal a story of power, complicity and the courage that it takes to face the truth.

'Superb' Lucy Caldwell, author of These Days

'Rich, rare and well done' Irish Times

'Coolly furious' Marie Claire

'Smart, stylish and darkly funny' Aingeala Flannery, author of The Amusements

'Powerful and compelling' Joseph O'Connor, author of Starless Sea

'A hugely gripping literary page-turner' Claire Powell, author of At the Table

'Prose as sharp as a chef's best knife' Victoria Kennefick, author of Egg/Shell

"In alternating chapters, Gilmartin gives voice to Daniel, Hannah and Julie, perceptively delving into issues of silence, complicity and the aftermath of violence" -- Washington Post
