No Laughing Matter

Zak Randish, winemaker and owner of a famous vineyard, has been murdered. Someone forced him through a windowpane, severing his jugular vein. Randish was ruthless and promiscuous, so Inspector Luke Thanet knows that the only way of narrowing down suspects and finding a clue to the identity of the killer is to delve into the victim’s past. But with Thanet’s heartbroken daughter coming home for some fatherly comfort, he already has more than enough problems on his mind.
