Zurich, 1826. Young Rudolf, the son of a pastry chef seeking his fortune in the city, is desperate as his mother falls gravely ill. With his last savings, he buys a remedy from a local pharmacist: a bar of chocolate, a rare treat in that part of Switzerland at the time. After tasting it, his mother miraculously recovers her appetite and strength, leading Rudolf to vow that he will become the world's greatest chocolate master. In this sweeping family saga, Lisa Graf masterfully weaves the extraordinary commercial and social rise of the family behind the most famous chocolate makers with the tumultuous and passionate personal lives of its unforgettable protagonists.
