When a bevy of winemakers descend on Saint-Denis, competing for its
land and spurring resentment among the villagers, the idyllic
town--where Benoit "Bruno" Courreges is the town's only
policeman--finds itself the center of an intense drama, with
suspicious fires at the agricultural research station that is
working on genetically-modified crops.
Two young men--Max, an environmentalist who hopes to make organic
wine, and Fernando, the heir to an American wine fortune--become
rivals for the affections of Jacqueline, a flirtatious, newly
arrived Quebecoise student of wine. Events grow ever darker,
culminating in two suspicious deaths, and Bruno finds that the
problems of the present are never far from those of the past.
