Cultivating the Truth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798223407355)

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?
