Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Brief Project Description Inside the Grapevine is a 123,000(+)- word historical noir set in 1940s Northern California's wine country during World War II. When Primo Piangiani is wrongfully imprisoned at San Quentin, his brother Alex faces an impossible choice: accept the verdict or risk everything to uncover the truth. As Alex navigates the valley's network of whispered rumors-the grapevine that gives the novel its title-he discovers that wartime has created a shadowy underworld where crime, loyalty, and survival intersect in dangerous ways.With one brother behind bars and another shipped off to the Pacific theater, the Piangiani family embodies the fractures running through Italian-American communities during the war. The story captures the rich atmosphere of 1940s California-from the seasonal rhythms of vineyard life to the harsh realities of prison labor at San Quentin-while exploring how information travels through tight-knit communities and how truth becomes currency in times of crisis.The novel weaves together multiple threads: family loyalty tested by impossible circumstances, the underground networks that flourished during wartime rationing and suspicion, and the moral complexities faced by immigrant families caught between old-world values and American justice. Through Alex's journey, the story reveals how small choices-carrying a letter, changing a route, keeping a secret-can determine whether justice prevails or innocence is buried forever.Set against the backdrop of California's wine country and prison system, Inside the Grapevine illuminates a rarely explored corner of American wartime experience, where the line between rumor and truth, loyalty and betrayal, becomes as blurred as the morning fog rolling through the valley.Target Audiences & Appeal: Primary Audience: Readers of historical fiction, particularly those interested in California history, immigrant experiences, and World War II-era stories. This includes the substantial readership for authors like Kristin Hannah, Lisa See, and Kate Quinn.Secondary Audiences: Wine enthusiasts and those interested in Napa Valley historyItalian-American readers seeking an authentic representation of their heritageBook clubs drawn to character-driven historical narrativesReaders of family sagas spanning multiple generationsThe book appeals to these audiences because it combines intimate family drama with significant historical events, offering both emotional resonance and educational value. The California setting provides local interest while the universal themes of family, sacrifice, and perseverance ensure broader appeal.Comparable Titles & Unique Contributions: Comparable Titles: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid - Multi-generational family saga with California settingThe Nightingale by Kristin Hannah - WWII historical fiction focusing on family resilience Inside the Grapevine is a valley novel about crime, war, honor and truth set in 1940s Napa Valley.

Condición: Wie neu. 1. 192 S. Gebrauchtes Exemplar Geschenkqualität. Wie neu. KEINE Eintragungen/Markierungen. Hans-Georg Aschenbach wächst im beschaulichen Brotterode in Thüringen auf. Früh wird sein sportliches Talent entdeckt, gefördert und vom Staat ausgenutzt. Die Methodik des DDR-Leistungssports isoliert den jungen Skispringer von der realen Welt. Er wird manipuliert, gedopt und zum Spielball des gelebten Sozialismus. Getrieben vom Erfolgsdruck und fliehend vor den Zweifeln an den Idealen der DDR wird Aschenbach einer der erfolgreichsten Skispringer seiner Zeit. Die Propaganda macht ihn zum Volkshelden, zum idealisierten Vorbild im 'besseren Deutschland'. Tatsächlich aber ist er ein Gefangener. Im Verborgenen wachsen Aschenbachs Ängste und Zweifel. Schließlich setzt er sich, als ranghoher Offizier der NVA, 1988 während einer offiziellen Reise als Sportlerbetreuer in der BRD ab mit Folgen. Er ist jetzt fahnenflüchtiger Geheimnisträger, sein Leben deshalb gefährdet. Das Regime degradiert seinen Helden zum Verräter und folgt Aschenbach auf erschreckende Weise in den Westen. - Wir versenden aus unserem deutschen Lager heraus in plastikfreien oder wiederverwendeten Polstertaschen. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 322 gebundene Ausgabe, Maße: 13.3 cm x 20.7 cm x 1.9 cm.
