Summary
Lucie Montgomery, vintner at a Virginia winery, must solve a mystery that connects a presidential scandal with a murder in Prohibition-era DC that echoes all the way to the present.
Lucie Montgomery and winemaker Quinn Santori have decided to make champagne, a first for the Montgomery Estate Vineyard in Atoka, Virginia. But then Gino Tomassi, Quinn's uncle, turns up on their doorstep, demanding help in solving the mystery of what happened to Zara Tomassi, the first wife of his grandfather, who died in a San Francisco hotel in 1923 under suspicious circumstances. It seems there's no coincidence that her death came the day after President Warren Harding passed away in that same hotel. Gino needs answers before his blackmailer takes him for all he's worth - or exposes an explosive family secret.
Lucie searches for what happened almost 100 years ago as she delves into Prohibition-era Washington, DC - a town of bootlegging and duplicity, jazz clubs and speakeasies. But then the investigation turns deadly, threatening Lucie, her relationship with Quinn, and the vineyard. Someone is still out there, nearly a century later, who will go to any lengths to keep the truth about Zara's death a buried secret.

A little bit boring
The story is overall okay but the characters are flat and not too likeable. Fine book to listen in the car or during the trip.

Perfect Cosy book
intriguing plot, likeable characters and relationships, a wee bit of romance, some thought provoking comments and fitting tright in to the cosy category. Look forward to more of the same!

Enjoyable easy listening
This audiobook kept me company while driving, as it didn’t require too much concentration.
I particularly appreciated the vinery and winemaking aspect because my family makes wines in Italy, and I found that the author has really quite a good knowledge of the wine business.
The reader was not my favorite, for me her voice was not too engaging, and her (failed) attempt at British accent was annoying.
