Will Dr. Jill Quint live long enough to see her first vintage of Moscato wine? She had been providing second opinions about the cause of death of a loved one for nearly 5 years. Her early experience had been as a medical examiner in a county crime lab. She left the crime lab to grow the Muscat grape in California’s central valley in hopes of creating the perfect Moscato wine. She had outfitted a barn as a toxicology lab more for her study of pests to her grapes, than her work as a consultant, but she found herself using the lab for both lines of work. Her latest case was the death of Graeme St. Louis. A young attorney in a wealthy suburb near San Francisco died from necrotizing fasciitis (better known as gangrene). His death appeared to be from natural causes due to the infection caused by a small wound resulting from a brush with sharp coral while scuba diving. Jill soon becomes the next target after she proves that Graeme was murdered. Will she stay alive long enough to find the killer?
