Murdered by Wine

About This Audiobook

Dianne Harman’s *Murdered by Wine* delivers a flavorful twist on cozy mysteries, where the vineyard is as much a character as the victim. Angela Moretti, the Moretti Winery’s celebrated winemaker, is discovered floating in a vat of her own Cabernet—her death as rich and unexpected as the harvest she loved. With wineries brimming with secrets and a cast of suspects as complex as a 20-year-aged Bordeaux, Harman serves up a story steeped in small-town intrigue and family rivalry. The mystery unfolds like a slow fermentation, building tension as the truth ferments beneath the surface, only to explode when the cork’s popped. Fans of series like *Murder She Wrote* will sip this up, but Harman’s sharp dialogue and vivid setting make it a standout.

Narrator Kasey Logan elevates the experience with a voice as smooth as Merlot, balancing warmth with a razor’s edge of suspicion. Her performance breathes life into the Moretti family’s clashing egos and the nosy townsfolk circling like flies around a spilled glass. The pacing is brisk enough to avoid the snooze factor of some cozy mysteries, yet Harman lingers just long enough on the winemaking process to make you crave a virtual vineyard tour. It’s a rare audiobook that makes you feel the heat of the crush pad and the chill of a murder investigation in equal measure.
