When Clementine Peine's father died she was relieved. At least she would now have the House of Peine and be in charge of the vineyards and winery which had been her father's domain for so long. Clementine loved the vines, certainly more than she had loved her father. What she hadn't expected was that her father's will would leave her just a quarter of the House of Peine. It was bad enough that another quarter was to go to her sister Mathilde, a Manhattan business woman and the cause of a lot of Clementine's unhappiness. She then discovered that her father had an illegitimate child, the waif-like Sophie who was entitled to another quarter. And what of the remaining share? Well, that's to go to the sisters' children.
