THE BOOTLEGGER'S BETRAYAL - Hardback

For twenty-nine years, she let the world believe it had the whole story.

Elko, Nevada, 1955
A women's historical fiction novel about the truths we protect — and the price we pay for our silence.

Seventy-six-year-old Meg Bruno has spent decades in quiet exile, guarding a truth she swore she'd never tell. Once known as the infamous Bootlegging Queen, she smuggled sacramental wine during Prohibition until the law caught up with her and stripped her of everything.

Then June Monroe shows up at her door — pencil in hand, career on the line, determined to unearth the facts behind one of the largest wine raids in Nevada history, and the truth about the woman who never spoke to defend herself. This isn't a story that rushes. The harder June presses, the more Meg resists, and the two women circle each other, each guarded secret giving way to the next — until a truth neither of them saw coming turns two strangers into unlikely friends.

Inspired by true events, The Bootlegger's Betrayal is a sweeping novel about the price of silence, and what it costs a woman to be written out of her own history.

This book is for you if:

• You love a heroine who's tougher than anyone ever gave her credit for
• You want family secrets that take decades — and two timelines — to surface
• You're drawn to slow-burn, character-driven stories with a touch of mystery
• You believe some truths are worth the wait
  

Secrets age like wine... and this one is ready to be uncorked.
