Occur Hollywood, Paris, Bordeaux, and Marseille, Peter Mayle’s latest and most wonderful novel is filled with culinary delights, sumptuous wines, and bright colored people. It’s also lots of fun.
The story commences high above Los Angeles, at the extravagant home and evenly impressive wine beverages cellar of entertainment legal professional Danny Roth. Unfortunately, after inviting the Los Angeles Times to write an extensive account extolling the liquid treasures of his collection, Roth confirms himself the victim of a world-class wine beverages heist.
Enter Sam Levitt, previous corporate lawyer, cultivated crime expert, and wine beverages connoisseur. Called in by Roth’s insurance provider, which is currently saddled with a multimillion-dollar lay claim, Sam follows his leads—to Bordeaux and its magnificent vineyards, and also to Provence to meet an eccentric billionaire collector who might possibly don't mind spending time in the stolen wines. Along the way, bien sûr, he's joined by a lovely and erudite French colleague, and together they get around many a château, pausing frequently to take pleasure from the countryside’s considerable pleasures.
The unraveling of the ingenious crime is threaded through with Mayle’s seductive making of France’s sensory delights—from a fine Lynch-Bages and Léoville Barton to the bouillabaisse of Marseille and the young lamb of Bordeaux. Even the most advanced of oenophiles will learn something or two from this vintage work by the beloved author.
