🍷In an idyllic Sussex town, murder is fermenting... 🍷

Barclay Flint is the charmingly eccentric proprietor of The Bottle Bank wine shop, nestled in a picturesque Sussex town renowned for its gloriously anarchic Bonfire Night celebration.

Barclay can taste a kaleidoscopic universe in a single glass of wine and delights in matching customers to the grapes of their dreams. But when his close friend, struggling regenerative vineyard owner Victor Crawshaw, is found dead, Barclay finds himself a prime suspect.

To crack the case and clear his name, Barclay must deploy his wine detection skills and follow his nose through the rolling Sussex hills where a tangle of old resentments and rivalries awaits to ensnare him.

With a killer on the loose and Bonfire Night fast approaching, the town crackles with anticipation. This year the fireworks might not be the only things to explode...

Join Barclay and his friends from The Bottle Bank in this sparkling debut novel by wine expert Olly Smith. It's time to uncork the most exuberant and irresistible mystery of the year!

Olly Smith brings his legendary nose to detecting dark and troubling notes in the vinous twittens of Lewes. I loved his crime debut so much I bought a case of Sussex Seyval Blanc to celebrate it.

Barclay Flint, owner of The Bottle Bank wine shop, is truly a wine connoisseur. Think of him as the wand guy in Harry Potter and his skill in matching bottles to owners, and you're on the money . . . although this is a debut, it feels very assured [with] clever writing

This is Olly Smith at his eloquent best! The lead character, Bartley, exemplifies Olly's exuberant descriptions of everything, especially the wines. The book's heart-warming characters have made this first book a joyful read/listen. Bring on the next in the series and bring Death by Noir to our TV screens!
