The Little Sushi Chef

The real challenge isn’t mastering sushi. It’s making it out alive.

For Akiko Ono, being accepted into the apprentice program at the most prestigious sushi restaurant in Kyoto was supposed to be life-changing—a chance to honor her father’s legacy.

But from the moment she enters the six-week competition, something feels off. Her competitors are disturbingly secretive. Then strange accidents begin to happen, each more dangerous than the last.

With each day bringing new risks, Akiko can’t shake the feeling that someone doesn’t want her to fail—they want her out of the way for good.

The opportunity of a lifetime is quickly turning into a waking nightmare. If Akiko doesn’t figure out who’s behind the threats, she won’t just lose the competition—she’ll lose her life.
