Description

English widow, Jean Valeix, is the owner of a vineyard in the French wine village of Saint-Emilion. But her cherished château is struggling to sell its produce. A handful of people - among them a charming middle-aged Scotsman, a jaw-droppingly beautiful girl and a talented autistic boy - will change her life completely. But not all her visitors are who they claim to be. All she needs to do is find out who's telling the truth, save her business from bankruptcy and solve a murder. Only then might she discover that sometimes even good things come in threes.

Viticulture and romance, mental health and murder all tumble, along with the cabernets and merlots, into the fermenting vat of this dark but uplifting novel.

"a real page turner of a story full of teasing clues and cliff-hanging suspense... a triumph of a little book, immensely readable and with the added interest of its back-story for the wine buff. Highly recommended." - Tom Cannavan, wine journalist

"This is a book I wanted to finish and yet was enjoying the journey so much that I forced myself to ration the chapters to make it last longer. I just hope this is the first of many such books from this very talented writer with a mastery of bitter-sweet tales." - Peter F May, Wine Editor, BellaOnline

"... full-bodied, spicy with fascinating and fruity overtones." - John Walker, Author of The Jagermeister's Apprentice

Patrick Hilyer, author of the award-winning wine travel guide French Vineyards, lives and works in Normandy, France.

This fifth edition includes the new cover and title and an extract from the second book in the Saint-Emilion Vineyard Mystery series - A Devil in the Grape.
