The Riddle of the Vines

Blackmail, kidnapping, and murder were the tools used by gentlemanly villains to cover the tracks of a crime that netted millions of pounds annually for almost two decades. The story unfolds through the eyes of Johnny Cobbold, a City of London wine shipper who is under continuous threat and perceived to hold the key that could reveal the crime and the identity of its perpetrators. Gripping and tantalising to the last, the narrative also reveals fascinating, little-known facts about wine and London itself.
