Georgina's simple photoshoot of up-and-coming winemaker Gaby Edwards at her family's vineyards turns sour when Gaby's bullying brother is discovered drowned in a fermentation tank. And to add to the murderous bouquet, Georgina's spaniel, Bert, uncovers a skeleton hidden in a pond. Are the two deaths connected by more than their watery graves? Aided by her aristocratic friend Sybbie and the sceptical DI Colin Bradshaw, Georgina soon uncovers a tragic history of family rivalries and secrets buried deeper than the vines' roots.

Autorenporträt
Kate's written for as long as she can remember; it started with stories about ponies and dogs, moved into ghosts and history, and then into local history and romance. She's won three Romantic Novelists' Association awards for her romantic fiction - and is thoroughly enjoying her new life of crime! She lives in Norwich with her husband, two grown-up children, two spaniels and too many books to count. When she's not writing or researching, she'll be out at a gig or the theatre, at ballet class, doing cross-stitch, taking photographs of the sunrise while persuading the spaniels to stay still for one second, fossicking around on a beach or in archives, or exploring ancient buildings. She loves learning new things, which is why you'll always discover something different in a Kate Hardy book. Oh - and, like her heroine Georgina Drake, Kate's deaf but doesn't let it hold her back in any way.
