Overview

Beneath the clean michelin-star veneer of the Averno restaurant lies a malevolence. At its core something rots.

Isaac and Frances are new employees. Isaac, bright-eyed and ambitious, can’t believe his opportunity to learn under the legendary head-chef Guy Bernard. Frances, less certain of her path, just needs a job.

A cautionary tale with a demonic twist: A Summer at the Averno explores how ambition can be a double-edged sword, and how the line between mentorship and manipulation can become disturbingly blurred.
