Join Nick and Carter and all the gang in a tale of murder and wine, family and betrayal, and how secrets can destroy the thing they're designed to protect. Sunday, August 6, 1972 It's a warm summer's day up in Sonoma and Nick and Carter are in the Cougar and on their way to lunch at a local winery. Merka Wines has been one of the big suppliers for Hopkins Hotels for quite some time. But Nick has never met old Paul Merka and his family and is looking forward to finally getting a chance to do so. After a delicious four-course meal, Paul takes Nick and Carter out for a walk through the vineyards. Before they get very far, though, they stumble across a dead body. It doesn't take long before the family circles the wagons and attempts to prevent Nick from doing what he should as a licensed private investigator. And that's only the beginning of what turns out to be quite a tragic tale. Will Nick and Carter be able to stop the tragedy from spreading before everything is lost? Read the mystery of The Vicious Vintner and find out! * * * Some mysteries can't be solved in just a few days or weeks or months, even. This epic tale takes us from California to France to Chile and back again. Spanning a lot of history from 1972 through to 1983, we make several stops along the way.
