Women's Fiction
Set between the hip and idyllic farm-to-table foodie
communities of the Hudson Valley, and the hotspots of
Brooklyn, the Hamptons, and Manhattan, The Second Course
follows four old friends struggling to find their
footing in a rapidly changing world. Food has always been Billy’s language and her currency, but
she isn’t hungry anymore—and it’s terrifying her. That is,
until she attends a wedding and meets chef Ethan—an
enigmatic powerhouse half her age. Billy is sure her life
will never be the same, and she's right: she soon finds
herself moving upstate to restart her culinary career with
Ethan as her business partner—trading New York nightlife for
hikes and foraging in the peaceful Hudson Valley. Back in the city, her three best friends, Lucy, Sarah, and
Lotta each harbor secrets that threaten to tear their lives
apart. Tensions are rising between the four women, and it
will take one tragedy—and more than a few glasses of
wine—for them to remember why they became friends in the
first place. With the electrifying culinary prose of Stephanie Danler’s
Sweetbitter and the heart of Elisabeth Egan’s A
Window Opens, The Second Course is both a treat
for the senses and an honest exploration of the shared
conflicts, deep love and loyalty that bind a group of
girlfriends together.
