Book description
When a tornado rips through Montgomery Estate Vineyard, it not only
destroys some of Lucie Montgomery's newest grapevines but also unearths
a grave in an abandoned field. The discovery sets tongues wagging in the
small town of Atoka, Virginia, especially after the police inform Lucie
that the odds are good someone in her family is responsible-possibly for
murder. Meanwhile, Lucie has granted permission to a group of Civil War
re-enactors to use a field near the gravesite to stage the local Battle
of Ball's Bluff. As the day for the reenactment draws near, the ghosts
of her own family's past converge for an outcome she could never have
anticipated.
