Harmon and White Publishing LLC Announced Today the Release of their First Book - The Good Life, A Chris Garrett Novel - A Vacation in Napa Valley
Napa Valley, CA (PRWEB) June 20, 2007 -- Harmon and White Publishing announced today the release of their first book "The Good Life - A Chris Garrett Novel"
"The forecast for the Napa Valley is buoyant with a great chance of laughter. When the weather threatens to dampen your day, this book is the perfect remedy." -- Spencer Christian, ABC Weather Anchor and avid wine enthusiast
A Vacation in Napa Valley! Have you ever wanted to escape it all and go live in wine country? Make award-winning wine, maybe fall in love? Or maybe just visit, but can't seem to find the time? Now the wine country comes to you in The Good Life, A Chris Garrett Novel by David G. White, a fictional story about a winemaker whose winemaking skills are put to the ultimate test -- solving a murder.
It's harvest season, the most exciting time of year for winemaker Chris Garrett and also the busiest, where working long hours is the rule, not the exception. So when his mentor legendary winemaker Vic Miranda is found floating face down in a vat of fermenting wine, everyone assumes the drowning was an accident caused fatigue and overwork.
That's the official line. But like badly made wine, Chris just can't swallow it. Vic was too experienced. He must have been pushed into that vat. Only who did the pushing? With help from his friend Deputy Sheriff Jeff Beckwell, Chris investigates on his own, but poking your nose into other people's business much like finding flaws in a highly touted cult cab is usually resented, and soon Chris is fending off accusations, threats and even an attempt on his life.
Who could want Chris dead? And does it have anything to do with Vic's illicit love affair? Or was it more about the questionable land deal Vic was involved in? And who is the alluring woman in the red dress that is so curious about Vic's death --- and Chris's interest in it?
Can highly honed winemaking skills help Chris detect the clues into why his mentor was murdered? Perhaps it's those very skills that will make it possible for Chris to solve the mystery.
This 272 page hardcover book is case bound and sewn, with gold foil stamping on both the spine and front, colored end leafs, embossed lettering on the gloss laminated dust jacket and printed on acid free paper.
