Wine, women, and cons: the three inspirations for my newest book, “The Wine Club”!
I try to do something different with each book, so I always have my eyes and ears open for stories that intrigue me. One evening my husband and I watched the movie “The Sting,” featuring Robert Redford and Paul Newman. That planted the seed for writing about a con, but with a twist: what would motivate women to perpetrate such a crime?
A few days later I watched an episode of “American Greed,” about a wine store in California selling wine it didn’t actually carry. “Ah-ha!” I thought. “Time to explore the lengths to which a couple of moms in need of cash would go.”
That’s when “The Wine Club” was born!
