The Fae Ingredient

By Jason Bustard

Amandine loves to cook. As the scull for a noble house in the magical land of Beregoth, she watches and learns from grumpy old Chef Brutsche and his assistants and dreams of being a chef herself one day. After a new acquaintance has a peek into Chef's secret pantry, a mystery begins to unfold. Dark fae, old magic and a strange mushroom lead Amandine to try and discover the secrets of Chef's amazing food.

With the strange ingredient from Chef's pantry in hand, Amandine sets out, with the help of her friends, Gil, the baker's apprentice, and Fredderick, a mysterious noble youth with magical powers, to discover what it is and what the secretive Chef Brutsche does with it. Along the way she discovers that it may have a link to a local tribe of dark fae who are in a bad light with the nearby townsfolk and nobles. Are the Boglings really responsible for the recent problems plaguing the town of Stoneman? Will the key ingredient to one of Chef's signature dishes be lost forever? As Amandine struggles with these questions, she and her companions are flung into events that will test both their bravery and her cooking skills...
