Unsavory Delicacies by Russell Brooks

I found these three short story "thrillers" very easy reading.
The stories are interconnected by a restaurant and the theme of revenge mingled with food. Whilst I thought the first two stories, Creme Brulee and To The Last Bite worked well as short stories but I think I missed the point on Shashlyk and Morozhenoe which felt more like a beginning of something.
Don't expect much character development as the stories are on the shorter side of short. The writing style is very matter of fact and I think it would appeal more to thriller fans that wanted something to fill an hour.
