Crime du Vin

Following Buddy, Can You Spare A Crime and Little Girl Lost, Martin Villas is cooped as the ‘road manager’ for a group of San Francisco’s homeless who have been hired as featured actors for a series of hilarious commercials for a Sonoma County vine-yard. Quickly enough, what Martin thought would be essentially a paid vacation turns into mystery when they discover a body in a fermentation vat...a body which didn’t get there accidentally. Set in the wine country to the north of San Francisco, Crime du Vin takes our homeless detective on a high-flying adventure involving hot air balloons, fine restaurants, the wine train, antique cars and a mystery which goes far beyond a simple case of murder.
