The Last Bottle - Paperback

by Marcia Breece (Author)

A lush, multigenerational journey across time and continents, from 1920s Ohio to wartime France to modern-day Paris, where music, recipes and DNA reveal the stories they carry and the truths they can no longer hide.

At the heart of the story is Audrey Dupré, a teenage piano prodigy who finds herself pregnant and exiled to Paris. Amid war and heartbreak, Audrey works in a vineyard in Beaune and as WWII ends, she is gifted four bottles of exquisite Burgundy. She opens each one at a defining moment in her long life.

With each DNA revelation, generations are drawn together and pulled apart, their lives forever changed by secrets, mistaken legacies and a violin with a history as rich as the wine.
