Jeni, the wife of a recently appointed diplomat, enjoys cultural intrigue and lasting friendships when she joins the exotic International Ladies of Bucharest. But when Jeni volunteers to help one of those friends solve a mystery on an old family vineyard, she learns that trips to Romania's wine country can be deadly. Two murders, with Jeni caught in the middle, have the police pointing fingers the wrong way. Jeni must fight against the clock to solve the mystery before she is arrested or, worse, becomes the true murderer's next victim.
Praise For Secrets in the Vines...
From CLARION REVIEW:
"Golden's first-hand knowledge of Romania is fascinating."
FROM BLUEINK REVIEW:
"Nothing makes an overworked genre like mystery seem quite so fresh as a story set in an exotic locale. SECRETS IN THE VINES takes this theory to heart, offering up a murder mystery set in the wine country surrounding Romania. It's a winning formula." "Author Jane Golden drew on her own time in Bucharest to set up this tale, and it pays off nicely. Observations about the life of a foreigner trying to make sense of a new culture are spot-on and often funny; thoughts about parking customs and the laconic pace of government reflect an outsider's tendency to compare things to life at home, while also taking us deeper into the atmosphere. The mystery is gripping, but it's the setting that steals the show." The review concludes with this about SECRETS IN THE VINES: It has a "terrific pacing and a plot that ends well." Better yet, the reviewer states that "we're left wanting more of this juicy escapism."
FROM KIRKUS REVIEWS: "
An engaging mystery that turns the classic expatriate dream on its head."
FROM Marian Petrutza, President of the Romanian-American Press Association:
"The perfect vacation book....Colorful, entertaining, and beautifully written."

Автор: William Kirby, Mary Jane Edwards Название: Le Chien d`or/The Golden Dog: A Legend of Quebec ISBN: 0773540164 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780773540163 Издательство: Marston Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 71280.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: William Kirby`s Le Chien d`or / The Golden Dog, a dramatic historical romance that vividly details the intertwined French and English foundations of Canada, is one of the nation`s best-known pieces of nineteenth-century literature. A complicated publishing history, however, resulted in severe distortions of the text, so that each edition of the novel moved further from the author`s original vision. Now, in the final work produced by the Centre for Editing Early Canadian Texts at Carleton University, editor Mary Jane Edwards returns this beloved piece of literary history to its intended form. First published in 1877, Le Chien d`or draws upon the threads of legend spun around the real-life tablet of the Golden Dog, which can still be seen in Quebec City. The novel`s author William Kirby begins his tale in the 1740s, with the murder of the prosperous merchant who lived in the house that bore the tablet, and brings his work to a tragic end that coincides with the destruction of France`s North American empire. Weaving historical, literary, and religious allusions together with a powerful lyricism, Le Chien d`or develops an epic narrative of the heroic past and promising future of the Dominion of Canada. Though many versions of Le Chien d`or have been published in both French and English, very few people have read what the author intended to see in print. This edition brings Kirby`s unfulfilled legacy full circle by presenting a critically reliable version of his iconic Canadian novel.
