Hated Secret Admirer
Paulie can't wait for the year to be over so she can finish school. What she didn't expect was strange things to start happening to her. Roses start to show up everywhere she goes. When she goes have dinner and there's a rose on her fork, when she's changing clothes, there's a rose in her closet, when she tries to read a book...there are the roses again. Now she can't even go to the bathroom in peace because roses are also showing up in the toilet. There's just one small detail, Paula hates roses! Who could be the unpleasant person that's stalking Paulie everywhere with those damned roses? Some say it's a secret admirer, but Paulie thinks it's her hated secret admirer. The question is: how to get rid of him?
The Dark Vineyard
The second installment in the delightful, internationally acclaimed series featuring Bruno, Chief of Police: When a bevy of winemakers descend on Saint-Denis the idyllic town finds itself the center of an intense drama, with suspicious fires at the agricultural research station that is working on genetically-modified crops. Two young men—Max, an environmentalist who hopes to make organic wine, and Fernando, the heir to an American wine fortune—become rivals for the affections of Jacqueline, a flirtatious, newly arrived Québécoise student of wine. Events grow ever darker, culminating in two suspicious deaths, and Bruno finds that the problems of the present are never far from those of the past. "Captivating...Sure to appeal to readers with a palate for mysteries with social nuance and understated charm." —The Wall Street Journal "A gentle reminder to slow down and smell the grapes.... [Walker] beguiles the reader." —The New York Tiems Book Review "The real pleasure of the book is the place itself.... As readers are drawn into wine-stomping parties, truffle omelet dinners, and the aged dignity of a French hunting hound, the narrative tension gathers." —Houston Chronicle
