I received this book so long ago. I never was given any information from the publisher as to how these loans worked. I never had the chance to read this book before it disappeared from my library. I'm sorry that I didn't understand back then that there was a time limit on how long I could keep the book and that a review was required. I've learned a lot since then. I wish the publisher had been more specific at the time. I'm sure this is a fine book.

I enjoy this series. This is a quick light mystery. In this one the Winemaker Detective, Benjamin and his assistant are hired by a new owner of a vineyard in Beaujolais to insure that his new business venture will be successful. Other winemakers are not happy to have to have the outsider move in or to have the competition. There is an accidental death, vandalism, and murder. Benjamin along with making sure the wine is good also solves the crimes. The authors include a lot of wine background and do a very good job with French Wine Country Background. The mystery was OK, there are only a few suspects. This series does not have to be read in order. It is a quick enjoyable read.

Love this series and this book doesn't disappoint! It's nice to come back to a series and find the characters are "in character". The setting and thematic interest in wine never overpower the story, but add richness and depth to the plot.I will keep reading in this series as long as the authors keep them coming.

I was dissapointed. There was too much information about the wine industry, which, in my opinion did not add anything to the story. There is almost no suspense and I wonder where Benjamin and his assitent suddenly find the solution to the mystery? There are no details about investigations, only one little visit to a lab. If it would really be so easy there would be no crime left unsolved.
Thank you netgalley for giving me the chance to read and review the book.
