In Hot Waters (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780991464708)

When a bottle of whiskey is found amid the ruins of a centuries-old ship uncovered at the Ground Zero construction site, Samuel Dugranval, a.k.a "The Flying Distiller," is immediately intrigued. Along with his lab assistant, David Dubehash, he'll stop at nothing for a taste of the treasure and a glimpse of the ancient recipe.

Already deep in their hunt for answers, Samuel and David are abruptly interrupted when tragedy strikes-their friend, master distiller, and titan of the bourbon industry, Woody Campbell, is dead-his body found in the fermentation room of a Japanese competitor.

In a world of musky backrooms, high-end and high-stakes liquor, and secret-sauce recipes dating back to the birth of America itself, nothing is certain and everyone has something to hide.

Based largely on real-life characters in the business and chock-full of details on the art and history of distilling from a true master of the trade, In Hot Waters is a book to be read in front of a roaring fire with a stiff drink in hand-and the doors locked behind you.
