Overview
Hunger goes far beyond the needs of the belly...
Emma Sterling is thrilled when her sommelier boyfriend Sean invites her to meet his family in Bordeaux for the wine harvest season. Even though the news of his famous family is surprising, the prestigious Laurent castle and vineyard is the best place for her to find a unique concept for her next culinary article.
But a sense of creeping dread surrounds her while staying at the estate. She notices unnerving details about the family dynamic and their strange traditions. It's more than just the taxidermized dog wall, the family's carnivore tendencies, and the rule that she's not allowed in certain areas of the castle. She has a feeling Sean has been harboring sinister secrets from her.
Unable to shake her intuition, Emma digs deep into the family's past, uncovering the horrifying truth about the Laurent family. In order to survive, she must reckon with the darkest parts of herself and bring their chilling secrets to light before it consumes them all.
