Kenny is a home-schooled vineyard genius taught to tend grape vines in the Arizona desert by his fanatic father from Bordeaux. The story moves to California when Kenny follows his sister to Sonoma County. There he encounters life California Style: surprises galore and unique characters of Sonoma County.

Critical Acclaim
"Just because the people who populate his pages are unconventional and dysfunctional does not mean his prose is jumbled or rambling. His style is clean and even lyrical at times. This is a rather long novel, but it flies by because the reader is dying to know what outrageous escapade this wild and crazy group will come up with next."
-Diane McCurdy
