Vines and Vengeance at Harvest Hollow
(2026)(The sixth book in the Glamping & Gunner Mystery series)
A Story by Rachel Darrishaw
Harvest season in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley means peak fall color, award-winning wine, and — at Harvest Hollow Glamping Estate — a three-day festival of grape stomping, farm dinners under the stars, and live acoustic music among the vineyard rows. Danell White and Shotgun arrive to review the luxury bell tents and the estate's celebrated tasting room for Trails & Tents Magazine. But when the longtime winemaker is found dead in the fermentation cellar on the morning of the festival's third day, what looks like a tragic accident begins to feel like something far more deliberate.
This is the most unsettling case Danell has faced. The crime scene has been staged, the evidence doesn't match the story, and the estate's charismatic owner is doing everything right — grieving publicly, cooperating fully, and drawing Danell closer as a confidant. But Danell saw something the night before the body was found, something she didn't understand at the time, and as the science of winemaking begins to illuminate what really happened in that cellar, she realizes that the person she's been trusting may be the person she should have been watching all along.
With its gorgeous vineyard setting, a mystery built on invisible evidence and the dangerous gap between public image and private truth, Vines and Vengeance at Harvest Hollow is the sixth book in the Glamping & Gunner Mystery Series. For readers who love cozy mysteries with real investigative depth, a pug who takes his supervisory duties seriously, and a fair-play puzzle that hides its best clues in plain sight — pour a glass and settle in.
