"There is nothing like a glorious Texas Hill Country morning..." even for New Yorkers moving to Texas. John Boone became infatuated with Fredericksburg, Texas, on a work trip representing his New York computer firm. Bitten by the new adventure bug, laid back Texas lifestyle and beautiful landscapes, he packed up his household and wife, Joann, and headed for their new home on the edge of the Pedernales River. After meeting Viticulturist Trevor Talan and traveling to Portuguese wine country, they even planted their own dream vineyard. Life seemed perfect. Toasting the sunsets each night in cozy rocking chairs on their back porch, they began to witness at dusk shadows moving in the vineyard.

Their are friendly embracing neighbors. There are isolated and distant neighbors. Trying hard to get to know their new neighbors, they were devastated to find one of them dead in his home. Take the journey with them as they work with Trevor Talan and the local Sheriff to solve the mystery of Death on the Pedernales.
