Clay Edison plunges into Napa Valley’s dark underbelly in this unputdownable thriller from the New York Times bestselling father-son duo who write “brilliant, page-turning fiction” (Stephen King).
A decades old death. A modern-day murder. And a buried secret that refuses to stay buried…
Regina Klein doesn’t ask for many favors. But when her aunt, a brilliant winemaker, dies suddenly, she can’t help but question whether it actually was natural causes that killed her—or something more sinister. She calls in Private Investigator Clay Edison to crack open the case. What started as a routine inquiry turns into a mystery that stretches back to the 1970s—into the origins of a Napa Valley winery built on idealism, ambition, and something far darker.
Together, Regina and Clay must confront a case where memory is unreliable, motives are buried, and the truth may implicate the very people who want it uncovered.
