Wine influencer turned accidental sleuth Francine Witt heads to New York’s most exclusive gala expecting glamour, gossip, and good champagne. Instead, she finds a perfectly curated family tableau with one glaring flaw: someone is missing.

As whispers spread about a figure erased from the Moncrief legacy, the dynasty’s polished façade starts to unravel. Accidents turn deadly, and anyone who gets too close to the truth is quickly silenced.

With her intuitive partner Rosalind at her side—and a sceptical NYPD detective watching closely—Francine digs into a world of privilege, power, and carefully crafted lies. From Capote-style high society to the shadows of a family secret, nothing is quite what it seems.

To expose the truth at the heart of the Moncrief empire, Francine must risk her reputation, her friendships, and perhaps her heart.

Witty, feminist, and irresistibly sharp, Poured Out uncorks a sparkling new instalment in the Francine Witt Mystery series. Dorothy Parker’s ghost would surely raise a glass, then cut the whole affair to ribbons.

Francine Witt has come a long way from writing tasting notes on a laptop in her kitchen. Now a bestselling author, she's swapped the comment section for a candlelit banquet table, invited by one of those old-money families who make everything look effortless and explain nothing. It's exactly the kind of setting Francine doesn't quite trust, and honestly? Neither do we.

What Exeter does well here is keep the tension simmering without ever boiling over too fast. There's something genuinely unsettling about a family that's too polished, too rehearsed, and Francine's instincts pick up on every crack in the veneer. She's not the kind of protagonist who trips into danger. She walks toward it with her eyes open, wine glass in hand.

This was a good mystery book. It kept leaving me wanting more and more. I used the audio version and I just loved all the voice overs.
