Wealthy, respectable, and tight knit, the Llewyn family is veritable wine country royalty. But every empire has a dark side…
On a hot July night, the Llewyn clan gathers at their family vineyard for a birthday party. But what should be an evening of enthusiastic celebration quickly turns bitter. The Llewyn’s gathering quickly turns into a hotbed of arguments and long-simmering familial disputes. And things only unravel further when a major malfunction at the clan’s factory brings business to a halt.
After the tumultuous night, the Llewyns awaken to find more tragedy ahead: clan matriarch, Gail, is dead in her bed. While the police initially determine Gail’s death to be a result of natural causes, the coroner’s report unveils the shocking truth—Gail Llewyn was poisoned, and the only possible killers are members of her own family.
As a Llewyns turn on each other and their family secrets come spilling out, it’s up to you to sort through the family’s hidden affairs in order to identify who killed the vineyard matriarch. Will the Llewyn clan be able to recover? Or will this murderous mystery leave the family’s empire Dead on the Vine?
