THE VIOGNIER VENDETTA A Wine Country Mystery

Set in Virginia, this fifth installment in the Wine Country series finds Lucie Montgomery, vineyard owner, dealing with the disappearance of Rebecca, an old friend who works for a powerful billionaire. As Lucie becomes more deeply involved with the ramifications of the disappearance and her friend’s complicated life, it becomes clear that she herself might also be in danger. Christine Marshall’s smooth, honeyed voice makes for pleasant listening. Her skilled narration portrays Lucie as a sympathetic presence in the story. Her delivery of Lucie’s mild Southern drawl is believable, yet she keeps the story moving at an appropriate pace. Listeners will look forward to Lucie’s return.
