Description

In Martha’s Vineyard, 50-year-old governess Mary Wilcox expects to nurture young minds, not unearth dark family secrets. But as the Bellamy estate’s harvest season buzzes with activity, Mary stumbles upon diaries veiled in dust and scandal, revealing forbidden passions that have fermented like the wines around her. As she delves deeper into the past, sabotage strikes at the heart of the Bellamy vineyards, and Mary must discern whether these echoes of yesteryears are warnings—or if history’s poisonous roots are sprouting once more beneath her feet. In this tale where every whisper through the grapevines might hold a clue or a threat, can Mary trust her instincts to disentangle truth from treachery before the estate’s lush facade wilts to reveal decay?
