Crime Analyst Caitlyn Tilson Pepper inherits a vineyard and two Shakespearean theaters in a northern California town from a mysterious aunt and becomes a target for murder. Cait’s investigation into the life and death of her aunt Tasha forces her down a road paved with familial lies, devastating secrets, and multiple murders. Marcus Singer, a convicted felon and also Tasha’s secretary, and Rachel Cross, a neighbor and Shakespearean actress, resent Cait’s inheritance, but with the help of Royal Tanner (RT), a Navy SEAL, Cait is able to uncover the lies beneath the murders.
After a couple of arson attempts at the Elizabethan Theater, blasts of birdshot intended for Cait, and the suspicious nature of Tasha’s autopsy, Cait has a big decision to make: accept her inheritance and move to California or return to the job she loves in Ohio.
Twisted Vines is a novel of suspense. The climax surprises Cait and the police, as it will the reader.

Just wanna input on few general things, The website pattern is perfect, the articles is really superb : D.
Your daughter, Carla, has told me excitedly many times of your book. Being a mystery reader, and later, hopfully a writer, I’m most anxious to seeing this book of yours.
I knew it had to be Carla’s mother in the ‘Independent’. Awesome resemblance.
Best to you on your book, and may I throw in how much I adore both your daughter Carla and your son in law Rich.
