Beschreibung

Meet Wilberforce. He's a man so devited to his work that he can barely remember a time when he cared for anything else. But one summer evening he finds himself exploring a strange road . . . a road which leads him to a world he could never have imagined: rich in the promise of friendship and adventure, where the possibility of falling in love seems finally to be within reach.

Wilberforce's life now centres around the ramshackle Caerlyon Hall and a bewitching group of friends. As his horizons broaden and his heart expands, Wilberforce nurtures a new-found passion for fine wine. But he will discover that Caerlyon holds some unpalatable secrets and that passion comes at a price. Even the finest wine can leave a bitter aftertaste . . .

'Grows more and more pognant as the novel progresses . . . satisfyingly full-bodied and slips down a treat' SUNDAY TIMES

'The whole books is delightfully written . . . Pau lTorday is a remarkable original novelist' EVENING STANDARD
