When successful financial adviser Lewis Hammond moves to a small country town he leaves behind his former occupation. A cross-dresser since childhood, Lewis has come to try out his life as a woman. Louise’s Vintage Café is an overnight success. High teas and vintage clothing are back in vogue. New friends drop in to sample tiny versions of Melting Moments and Chocolate Afghans. The proprietress is also something of a sensation because her sympathy and knowledge of human foibles make her good at solving mysteries.

The Antique Chef is awash with quirky characters and odd adventures set in New Zealand during the 1990s. In a series of warm, humorous episodes Lewis, a tough amateur sleuth, and his delightful alter ego, Louise, always find something puzzling to investigate. Their friends—the girls from work, the ladies of the church choir, the local police sergeant and Bentley, a failed search and rescue dog—all help to crack some intriguing cases. This little book was a joy to read. Rural New Zealand with a touch of drag.
