Malicious mischief, family drama, and some serious bad guys make this adventure with the Bennett Sisters in France an edge-of-your-seat ride!

As Pascal struggles with his first harvest as a French winemaker, Merle is back in the US with her sisters. But she can't wait to get back to what she now terms "home" — France. Tristan and Merle's sister Stasia join them at the château but soon inexplicably disappear. The hunt for them, their perilous adventures, the unruly neighbors, family drama at home, courthouse suspense: it is enough to give Merle a panic attack. But she soldiers on... trying to keep hope alive.
