Blood On Vines (2021)
(Matakana, book 1)
Madeleine Eskedahl
"Blood On Vines is a deliciously criminal story set within the lush Matakana wine region of New Zealand. Infused with full-bodied characters and crime, the author has artfully woven a whodunnit thriller amongst the grapevines blanketing the Matakana valley. Authors so often neglect to include family life, but Blood On Vines has captured these in all their glory, which adds to the shock value when the plot twists, and then twists again. There is no guessing the ending of this one."
