Critic (eBook)

The Enzo Files: Book Two.
The foremost wine critic in France died doing what he loved—to strange extremes. Three years ago his body was found strung up like a scarecrow in a Gaillac vineyard, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Divine Bottle and pickled in wine.
For ex-pat Scot and forensic forager Enzo Macleod, the answer lies in cracking the critic's secretly coded reviews—which on publication could make or break a vineyard's reputation.
He finds that under the sweet idyll of southern French winery lurks a bitter, back-stabbing community—including several suspects for the critic's death. One of whom is prepared to kill again to keep their secret bottled up.
Please note this novel has previously been published in the US under the title THE VINTAGE CORPSE, but this ebook edition retains the original title.
