Her Final Toast

Small town. Big heart. Fatal indulgence.

One dead critic. One innocent man. And twenty-eight hours to uncork the truth.

When caustic wine reviewer Trixie Thorne drops dead at Erie Bluff's inaugural wine festival, police pin the blame on George Fenn, a gentle, socially awkward mushroom expert with a grudge - and the wrong fungi. It's a tidy case, too tidy for the locals who know him best.

As the police rush to close the file, Piper Merriwether, a guarded civilian analyst new to town, joins forces with her aunt and a young constable to ask the questions no one else will. Together, they have just over a day to dig past gossip, vineyard rivalries and long-buried secrets before George is remanded - and broken by the system.

Between small-town politics, vintage grudges and a few truths better left uncorked, Erie Bluff's unlikely alliance discovers that justice and friendship can take root in the unlikeliest soil.

The first in the heart-warming Eh Team Mysteries.
