As a member of N. 24th, Frances’ writers’ group, I have watched this engrossing story take shape over the past few years, thanks to Frances’ unrelenting research, fathomless curiosity, and sharp and eloquent story-telling. Our group has been treated every few weeks with a new and eagerly-awaited chapter on the untold and often dark history of California wine-making and the emblematic arson case at the center of the tale. You, lucky reader, will not have to wait to partake of Frances deep expertise in California history all at once. And while I must admit we got the pleasure of actually tasting Frances’ grandfather, Isaiah Hellman’s, antique port, you will feel like you have done so by the time you put this down.
Anyone interested in wine, even in the most tangential way, will love this book. It combines wine industry history, intrigue, passion and greed in a heady combination like none other. Using the 2005 tragic and very expensive wine arson fire that rocked the wine world as a hook, the story provides an even richer look into the chequered past of wine in California. Frances is an author who thrives on factual research in her writing but who also has the uncanny ability of turning that research into a darn good read. Grab a glass of wine and prepare to enjoy this book!
Once again Dinkelspiel tells an amazing, surprising story about the American experience, this time through the world of California wine. That glass you’re drinking has a provenance that includes murder? A page turner, especially for wine lovers and anyone who loves their history mixed with a griping true crime tale. The author has done her homework, and the result is superb. Bravo.
