Against all odds, Magda has reached the second stage of the Intergalactic Cooking Tournament, but her joy is short-lived: if she wants to win, she'll have to eliminate her friend and former teammate, Hector. Nevertheless, Magda is determined to go all the way--not for the glory, but to ensure that the all-powerful Nectar doesn't fall into the wrong hands. It won't be easy: between the Imperium's interference, Ommu's mysterious disappearance, and her grandmother's secrets, Magda is all on her own.
