Learn moreAn intriguing new case lures attorney Jack MacTaggart to the rarified air of California wine country in order to investigate the death of an heir to a Napa Valley empire.
Monsieur Giroux is not a happy man. Of course, who could be happy while discussing the death of their son? Without an heir, his Château Giroux winery will be inherited by another family member, its grapes plowed under to make way for a lucrative real-estate deal. Yet Giroux believes that his son may still be alive and hires MacTaggart to investigate.
In the third entry in his Shamus Award–nominated series of legal mysteries, author—and sometimes vigneron—Chuck Greaves blends themes of greed and vanity, rivalry and revenge, bottles them with an unexpected murder, and pours forth a plummy magnum of page-turning mystery about a privileged but deeply dysfunctional American family.
Chuck Greaves is the pen name for American author Charles Joseph Greaves, who spent twenty-five years as an LA trial lawyer before turning his attention to writing. His debut novel, Hush Money, won the SouthWest Writers International Writing Contest and received starred reviews from both Publishers Weekly and Library Journal.
Dan Butler, audiobook narrator, actor, writer, director, and producer, has had major roles on and off Broadway and has appeared in numerous television shows, including Frasier, House, and Monk. He cowrote and directed Karl Rove, I Love You and has appeared in such feature films as Crazy, Stupid, Love; Silence of the Lambs; Enemy of the State; and Fixing Frank, among others.
Reviews
“Greaves’s intrigue-laden third Jack MacTaggart mystery takes the Los Angeles–based attorney to Napa Valley to represent Philippe Giroux, an elderly vintner holding the family business in trust for his two sons…Oenophiles should enjoy the Napa Valley flavor, and the legally savvy, irreverent Jack makes a fine tour guide.”
“A gripping look at a world where great resources and the best intentions can go horribly wrong.”
