Deadly Vintage by Elaine Flinn

deadly-vintage.jpg Life is sweet for Molly Doyle and Treasures Antiques, the Carmel, California shop she manages, is doing well.  Her niece, Emma, continues to enrich her life, and her personal relationship with Randall, the chief of police, has reached an interesting plateau.

Eager to branch out into interior decoration, Molly takes on a lucrative commission to refurbish the wine tasting rooms at Bello Lago, a prestigious family-owned winery in Carmel Valley.  But Molly soon finds herself in the middle of the dysfunctional family's squabbles when they end in murder - and she's a prime suspect.  Even worse, Emma's future is at stake when a stranger walks into Treasures.


Carmel, California comes alive in Flinn\'s engaging fourth mystery to feature Molly Doyle, antiques dealer and reluctant but adept sleuth.  Once again, Molly delves at considerable personal risk into a homicide case.  Full of interesting antiques lore, this expertly plotted whodunit is a must-read for fans." -- Publishers Weekly



"You don't need to know anything about antiques to recognize when you've gound a genuine treasure.  Witty and skillfuly ploted, DEADLY VINTAGE has a cast of characters you can believe in.  Look no further for the perfect traditional mystery." -- Stephen Booth


elaine-flinn.jpgElaine Flinn is a recovering antiques dealer masquerading as a mystery writer.  Her multi-nominated and award winning Molly Doyle Mystery series is a take down on those rascals of the trade, who, while they pretend to be soigné, really only sell used stuff.  Elaine lends Molly her twenty plus years in the biz so Molly can spill the beans on the tricks, schemes, fakery and shenanigans of unscrupulous dealers, auctioneers and appraisers – and help you avoid Emptor Caveat (Buyer Beware)!
