WALES EVENING POST Keir Rothwell is a young artist with the world at his
feet. But an earthquake is coming. Spurned by his muse and ejected from
his art school, he faces artistic oblivion - a life without purpose. A
summer job in a wine shop changes everything. Keir sees a new canvas - a
chance to turn shop floor drudgery into an original piece of performance
art. But his wine critiques mock the shop's clientele and tension builds
on both sides of the counter. When his new project is threatened,
conflict becomes murder and long buried secrets threaten to destroy the
artist. But Keir Rothwell will not be undone. Homicidal thoughts? Don't
bottle them up - drink in this dark blend of Jim Thompson and George
Simenon, with notes of Patricia Highsmith. MURDER BY THE BOTTLE is a
vintage thriller that's destined to get even better with age. It's the
perfect partner for the discerning crime lover.
