Synopsis

The plot of land was perfect, affordable and came with a plantation of truffle oaks. Having exchanged London life for Provence, started a wine business and a family, here was a chance for Jamie and his wife to realise the final part of their dream. All they needed now was to build a house - and train a dog. But would they survive the secretive world of truffle hunters?

Review

"Warmth, sunshine, lavender, baking bread, garlic, pastis, Gauloises--and, of course, truffles. The scents and flavors of Provence waft and spill from every delicious page. Read it and salivate." -Antony Woodward, author of The Garden in the Clouds and Propellerhead

"Jamie Ivey's evocative descriptions of the characters, food and wines of Provence are often so vividly seductive that I was honestly tempted--as a vegetarian alcoholic sworn off the booze--to return to eating savory meat dishes and quaffing rose wine. I think I'll pass on the steak tartare though! A brilliant read, highly recommended." --John Dummer, author of Serge Bastarde Ate My Baguette

Written with a clear love for the Provencial lifestyle, this book is perfect for those interested in the South of France. --Publishers Weekly
