About this listen
The annual grape harvest at the Cambon family's magnificent vineyard is always a cause for celebration. But not this year.
When an accident destroys the crop, Clarisse Cambon knows exactly who to blame - her daughter-in-law, Jane. Forced to take charge of the ailing vineyard, Jane uncovers proof that Luc may not be the man she fell in love with 20 years ago. And, worse still, she knows that her old enemy, Clarisse, is the only one who knows the truth....
©2016 Carol Drinkwater (P)2016 W F Howes LtdThe story tells of a woman (Jane) who doesn't get on with her mother in law but is devoted to her husband, Luke. They live in London where her father is in a care home. but are drawn back to the French vineyard of Luke's childhood. We don't know why Jane & her mother in law don't get on and this is dragged out a long time and then not very dramatic when revealed. I didn't much like Luke or his wife Jane and I found it difficult to care.
As a narrator Carol is good, although I do like author-narrators. She reads well and has the right voices and pace. Sadly the story was just too light and insipid for me.
A light tale with little depth
