Penguin, New York, 2001, 1^st pr thus.  ISBN 0-14-100059-7.  Trade soft cover, 330 pages.  Very good; light edge and a bit of cover wear, binding sound.  Interior clean and unmarked with lightly tanned pages.  ‘Through three comic novels that span ten years and two continents, Dick Wimmer’s Irish Wine Trilogy follows the misadventures of brilliant Irish painter Seamus Boyne; his old friend, Gene Hagar; his wife – and Hagar’s lost love – Ciara; and his estranged teenage daughter, Tory.  An attempted suicide rudely interrupted by a murder attempt, a staged death that leads to a rollicking caper of kidnapping and mistaken identity, and bizarre love triangles are some of the hijinks and tomfoolery to be found…’ (from rear wrap)
