THE MILLION-SELLING AUTHOR OF THE BLACKHOUSE AND COFFIN ROAD HANDS FORENSIC SLEUTH ENZO MACLEOD A NEW COLD CASE.
GAILLAC, SOUTH-WEST FRANCE.
An unsolved case.
Gil Petty, America's most celebrated wine critic, is found strung up in a vineyard, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Divine Bottle and pickled in wine.
An un-cracked code.
For forensic expert Enzo Macleod, the key to this unsolved murder lies in decoding Petty's mysterious reviews - which could make or break a vineyard's reputation.
An uncorked criminal.
Enzo finds that beneath the tranquil façade of French viticulture lurks a back-stabbing community riddled with rivalry - and someone who is ready to stop him even if they have to kill again.

Peter May is one of my favourite writers. This is the first of the ENZO boks I've read. I cannot findfault with the writing but the subject matter failed to engage me. If you like wine (I'm teetotal!)... More
Love all the Peter May books I have read to date!
This is the second book in the Enzo series and of course I will certainly be buying and reading book 3!
I would write a review if Waterstones would deliver my book.
