The knives are out in A MURDER MOST FUNGAL, a fast-paced Fungalverse novella. Set several months after the events of my award-winning debut novel Mushroom Blues, this side story combines the culinary wonder of Jiro Dreams of Sushi, the kitchen chaos of The Bear, and the explosive tension of Hong Kong crime thrillers.
The story follows Pocho Jiro, a once-renowned makizushi chef, as he runs the kitchen for the military leader of the human colonizers. But one day, a run-in with fungal gangsters sets off a chain of events that Pocho cannot escape from. With his sister’s life on the line, Pocho is forced to commit a murder most fungal … or watch his sister die before his eyes.
