Book Details
A lively cocktail of whiskey, murder, and extortion
Betrayal, murder, lust, greed, and a taste for the good life, are seen through the hazy glass of a century-old bottle of whiskey that was auctioned for two million dollars. When the bottle is stolen from the highest bidder, former police detective, Oliver Savage, is hired to recover it. Oliver soon finds himself caught in a treacherous web of deceit as a simple theft explodes into something much larger and more dangerous.
Shackleton’s Whiskey is as fast paced as it is fun!
Oliver turned and tried to imagine the underground auctions. He could hear feigned laughter from pretentious people faking a good time. could see them seated, and standing, and milling about with their bodies bent toward gilded mirrors of coke - champagne flutes in their free hands. Though he enthusiastically embraced the good life, he despised grotesque excess. This is where someone paid a ridiculous sum of money for a bottle of whiskey. And some…will pay the ultimate price.
