In an effort to help housewives with food rationing, a BBC radio program called The Kitchen Front is holding a cooking contest--and the grand prize is a job as the program's first-ever female co-host. For four very different women, winning the competition would present a crucial chance to change their lives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e For a young widow, it's a chance to pay off her husband's debts and keep a roof over her children's heads. For a kitchen maid, it's a chance to leave servitude and find freedom. For a lady of the manor, it's a chance to escape her wealthy husband's increasingly hostile behavior. And for a trained chef, it's a chance to challenge the men at the top of her profession. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e These four women are giving the competition their all--even if that sometimes means bending the rules. But with so much at stake, will the contest that aims to bring the community together only serve to break it apart?\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Ballantine Books","offers":[{"title":"Kitchen Front | Jennifer Ryan | Paperback | 9780593158814 | Used: Good | Back Stacks I 1771001","offer_id":49550629339288,"sku":"1771001","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81FHE-d6F-L.jpg?v=1784902288","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/kitchen-front-1","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
