A Vintage Ending: A Vineyard Mystery

Wine, mountains, and a murder that’s far from a vintage classic.

Kelli Thorne thought she’d escaped the high-stakes pressure of the corporate world when she moved to the rugged, sun-drenched vineyards of Central Otago, New Zealand. As a boutique event planner, her biggest challenge is usually a bride’s choice of peonies until she hosts a high-end "Murder Mystery Weekend" for the world’s most elite wine critics.

When celebrity sommelier Julian Vane, the man with the "Velvet Tongue" and a list of enemies longer than a vine row, collapses during a dramatic reading of the killer’s confession, Kelli assumes it’s the performance of a lifetime.

Until the body doesn’t get up.
