Secrets in the Sauvignon: A Willow Creek Cozy Mystery

By Nicki Dohrn

A Cozy Vineyard Mystery (Willow Creek Mysteries Book 1)

Sun-soaked vineyards, a fresh start... and a murder that refuses to stay buried.

Life in wine country is supposed to be simple-tending the vines, welcoming guests, and building a thriving winery.

When Emma Hartley returns to her charming hometown of Willow Creek, she expects long days pouring wine-not stumbling over a dead body in her family's barrel room.

Trying to save her aunt's struggling vineyard, Emma is gearing up for the annual Harvest Moon Wine Festival when a trusted wine distributor turns up dead. With the sheriff circling and the vineyard's reputation on the line, suspicion quickly falls on someone close to Emma.

As secrets ferment beneath the surface of this tight-knit wine country town, Emma teams up with her best friend, her stubbornly loyal golden retriever, and her own sharp instincts to uncover the truth.

Between rival vineyard owners, shady business deals, and a killer determined to stay corked tight, Emma will have to trust her palate for lies before another body drops.

Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries with small-town charm, amateur sleuths, and a splash of wine-country intrigue.
