Cultivating the Truth: Betrayal, Murder, and Romance (The Dorothy Dennehy Mystery Series)

BETRAYAL REAPS A BITTER HARVEST Private Investigator Dorothy Dennehy is approached by a potential client who tells of a crime not yet committed. She dismisses the rants of a disgraced winery estate partner, preferring to focus on the running of Maxwell’s Bar and Grill. Her right-hand investigator, HB, has taken over much of the caseload for Quail Investigations, but before long Dorothy is pulled into a strange kidnapping case and a dysfunctional family who own and operate a successful winery in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Suspicions and theories abound. When the kidnap plans go south, the prime suspect becomes a dangerous threat to anyone involved. The complicated case brings new relationships into Dorothy’s life, raising old feelings to the surface. Will a long simmering, potential romantic interest, finally be realized? Or will the goal of a dangerous felon shatter it to pieces?
