Summary

Vintage rivalries make a "perfect mystery to read with a glass of vino in hand".

The Winemaker Detective goes to Beaujolais in a French-style cozy mystery for lovers of food and drink, amateur sleuth stories, or anything set in France.

A business magnate calls on wine expert Benjamin Cooker to kick-start his new wine business in Beaujolais, sparking bitter rivalries. Can the Winemaker Detective and his assistant keep calculating real estate agents, taciturn winegrowers, dubious wine merchants, and suspicious deaths from delaying delivery of the world-famous Beaujolais Nouveau?

Another adventure in this made-for-TV mystery series set in France. Both a wine novel and a mystery.

Critic reviews

"Riveting from the first page as the mystery simmers until it is smartly deduced." (The Discerning Reader)
"From the beginning the characters dove right into their plentiful knowledge of wine and the countryside of France. Illicit affairs relatives jealousies all contribute to the intrigue within this carefully-written book." (An Accidental Blog)
"There is a lot of drama and a murder and it all makes this book worth the time spent reading it. If you like books that take place in France about wine or murder this is a book for you." (I'd Rather Be at the Beach)
