Search - The Chardonnay Charade (Wine Country, Bk 2)

Second book in Crosby's Wine Country mysteries. Lucie Montgomery is determined to make great wine at the winery she's inherited from her parents in the Virginia wine country. In this second story in the series, she's getting more comfortable with running the winery. After a big charity event held at the winery, Lucie finds the body of Georgia Greenwood, wife of her good friend and doctor, Ross Greenwood. When Dr. Greenwood becomes the prime suspect in the murder, Lucie and her reporter friend Kit try to solve the case themselves.

Really enjoyed how the author weaves in her information about winemaking along with the mystery. The plot of this one is a good one too. A great series, so far!

I enjoyed this book, the author intregrates wine lore and history of lush Virginia country side, while the mystery is at the forefront. throughout the book there is the interesting relationship of Lucie the vineyard owner and her winemaker Quinn.
Lucie thinks she has trouble enough with the freak spring frost that is threatening to kill her tender young chardonnay grapes, but when the body of Georgia Greenwood is found in her vineyard, the situation becomes complex. A fun read.

A fun read for folks interested in wine country. Lucie tries to prevent the wine crop from freezing. Then, found dead in the vines, is Georgia Greenwood, political candidate. Georgia's husband is the prime suspect.
I enjoyed reading this. The character's are fairly well drawn.

Very good follow through from #1...
