£8.99

Three years ago the body of France’s foremost wine critic was found strung up like a scarecrow in a Gaillac vineyard, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Divine Bottle and pickled in wine. For ex-pat Scot and forensic forager Enzo Macleod, the answer to this unsolved murder lies in cracking the critic’s secretly coded reviews – which on publication could make or break a vineyard’s reputation. He finds that under the sweet idyll of a southern French winery lurks a bitter back-stabbing community – including several suspects for the critic’s death.
