Det. Inspector Thanet investigates a country vineyard tainted by murder in this British mystery from the CWA Silver Dagger Award–winning author. Sturrenden Vineyard is a few miles west of town, a lovely piece of land where tourists come to sip wine, tour the grounds, and enjoy the exquisite Kentish scenery. But Det. Inspector Luke Thanet is too busy for such frivolous activities, so his first visit comes with the introduction of a an attraction far more in keeping with his usual interests: murder. Vineyard owner Zak Randish has been found dead in his personal laboratory, where he'd been working late into the night to perfect the next vintage. His equipment is smashed and his blood stains every surface, mingling with the wine. Although outwardly happy, successful, and at peace, Randish had terrible secrets, and Thanet must uncover them soon, lest the vineyard's tidy rows of grapes run red with blood as red as Sturrenden wine. An "absorbing" police produral, No Laughing Matter is another sterling entry in Dorothy Simpson's long-running, award-winning mystery series (Publishers Weekly). Praise for Dorothy Simpson "A modern-day version of Agatha Christie." —Booklist "Dependably pleasing." —The Boston Globe No Laughing Matter is the 12th book in the Inspector Thanet Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
