Summary
Cal Claxton’s old farmhouse sits high in Oregon’s Red Hills, home of scores of wineries and some of the most coveted acreage for growing the pinot noir grape in the world. Former Los Angeles prosecutor Cal settled in this haven to reboot his life as a widower, growing a small practice that includes some pro bono work in nearby Portland.

Critics Review
Easley skillfully blends fact and fiction in this tale of cultural conflict, politics, and murder with a likable hero at its heart. * Publishers Weekly on Not Dead Enough, Cal Claxton #4 *
Oenophiles and aspiring vintners will enjoy the wine lore in this well-wrought tale of love and betrayal. * Publishers Weekly *
The book is very well written and plotted. The characters were believable and (for the most part), likeable. The language is clear and concise and the story moves along well. This is a very good read. This is a very well written and plotted book. I truly enjoyed it. It is both suspenseful and gives enough background on the characters to know them, but not so much that it detracts from the main story. This is my first Warren Easley novel, but it won’t be my last. I very much look forward to the next installment in the Cal Claxton series or whatever he writes next. – Joyce Fox * NetGalley *
This was a very believable story with well rounded characters. Easy reading but also fun. – Kathleen Gray * NetGalley *
Warren C. Easley blends my favorite subjects — wine, food, a really cool dog and, of course, murder — into a tasty thriller set in Oregon wine country. With more twists and turns than a rainswept coastal road, BLOOD FOR WINE is the fifth in this series with a tantalizing backlist just waiting for me to get my hands on. It promises to be a mystery maven’s haven. – Roz Shea * Bookreporter *
