Book Review: Decanting Murder


Decanting a Murder
Title: Decanting A Murder

Author: Nadine Nettmann

 Star: 4 out of 5

Review:
A murder mystery set in the wine making region of California which has a female heroine who has just sat, and failed, her exam to be a certified sommelier. Invited by a long time friend to party at an exclusive winery she is present when one of the owners is murdered. The plot thickens from that point and our heroine must work hard and quickly to clear her friend. I liked the writing style of the author and very much enjoyed the story. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
I gave it a four star rating.
I received an ARC from Netgalley for my unbiased review.

Synopsis: 
Can Katie Solve a Case of Chateau Murdeaux?

Katie Stillwell focuses on two things in her life: work and practicing for Sommelier Certification with her blind tasting group. The exam was sup- posed to be the hardest part of her week, but that was before a body was found at an exclusive Napa Valley winery party.

When all the evidence points to Katie’s best friend, the outspoken and independent Tessa, Katie drops everything to clear Tessa’s name. Using her deductive wine skills, she tries to track down the real killer. But when repeated attempts are made on her life, Katie discovers that everyone’s secrets must be uncovered—including her own.
