[A BJ Vinson Mystery 04] • The Lovely Pines

A BJ Vinson Mystery When Ariel Gonda's winery, the Lovely Pines, suffers a break-in, the police write the incident off as a prank since nothing was taken. But Ariel knows something is wrong--small clues are beginning to add up--and he turns to Private Investigator BJ Vinson for help. BJ soon discovers the incident is anything but harmless. When a vineyard worker--who is also more than he seems--is killed, there are plenty of suspects to go around. But are the two crimes even related? As BJ and his significant other, Paul Barton, follow the trail from the central New Mexico wine country south to Las Cruces and Carlsbad, they discover a tangled web involving members of the US military, a mistaken identity, a family fortune in dispute, and even a secret baby. The body count is rising, and a child may be in danger. BJ will need all his skills to survive, because between a deadly sniper and sabotage, someone is determined to make sure this case goes unsolved.
