When a former schoolmate invites flamboyant senior sleuth Sadie Kramer to a theatre production, she jumps at the excuse to visit the Monterey Bay area for a weekend. With quaint Carmel shops a short drive away and luxurious linens in her hotel accommodations, the excursion promises to be both entertaining and relaxing.
Plenty of action is expected on stage, but when the show's leading lady turns up dead, Sadie finds herself faced with more than one drama to follow. With both cast members and production crew as potential suspects, will Sadie and her sidekick Yorkie, Coco, be able to solve the case?

"Deborah Garner is gifted at bringing each character to life. She adds details seamlessly, making it seem like you know these people. She presents scenarios that have you thinking you know who did it, and then in the next sentence you are second guessing yourself. And that is to say, this is a great “who done it” … it gets 2 thumbs up from me :)" - reviews Tracy Helps You
"I love the way Deborah Garner describes everything in this book, and I can't wait to read more in this series! This book literally kept me guessing until the very end." - reviews Sanity is for those without children

A Flair for Chardonnay (A Sadie Kramer Flair Mystery Book 1)
When flamboyant senior sleuth Sadie Kramer learns the owner of Cioccolato, her favorite chocolate shop, is in trouble, she heads for the California wine country with a tote-bagged Yorkie and a slew of questions. The fourth generation Tremiato Winery promises answers, but not before a dead body turns up at the vintners’ scheduled Harvest Festival.
All four Tremiato siblings have possible motives, as well as a few peripheral acquaintances, but only one could be the guilty party. As Sadie juggles truffles, tips and turmoil, she’ll need to sort the grapes from the wrath in order to find the identity of the killer.
Deborah Garner is an accomplished travel writer with a passion for back roads and secret hideaways. Born and raised in California, she studied in France before returning to the U.S. to attend UCLA. After stints in graduate school and teaching, she attempted to clone herself for decades by founding and running a dance and performing arts center, designing and manufacturing clothing and accessories, and tackling both spreadsheets and display racks for corporate retail management. Her passions include photography, hiking and animal rescue. She speaks five languages, some substantially better than others. She now divides her time between California and Wyoming, dragging one human and two canines along whenever possible.

My favorite TV detective was Columbo. He was a real characters.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoyed watching MONK.
ReplyDeleteOh, definitely watched the Remington Steele reruns on A&E in the 90s (was a little too young in the 80s to care about it when it was on)... and then got the DVDs some years back. Why - Pierce Brosnan! And it's fun anyway! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite tv detective is Robert Goren played by Vincent D'onfrio from law and order criminal intent. I just love his sherlock holmes style but modern.
ReplyDeleteJames Garner was one of the best. After being a cowboy in “Maverick” – he always wore great vests – he became James Rockford in “The Rockford Files,” a just-getting-by private investigator who would rather make jokes than have to shoot or wrestle a law breaker. Rockford was more wisecracks than brass knuckles.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Jim Rockford because of all the colorful characters that surround him on the show.
ReplyDeleteFavorite detctive ? I gotta go old school and say "Murder She wrote" -
