(2018)(A book in the Whiskey Run Chronicles series)
An omnibus of novels by B R Snow
"Milo Razner is back, and back with a vengeance, in Volume 2 of The Whiskey Run Chronicles, B.R. Snow's outstanding series on bootlegging during Prohibition on the U.S. Canadian border."
The bootlegging business is booming and Milo has his eye on expansion, but when Jimmy Sleaze, a former partner in crime, arrives in town, Milo's plans are forced to take a backseat until he can figure out what to do with the interloper who's threatening to put a serious crimp in his operation. In addition to The Sleaze, Milo is also dealing with several other problems including what to do about the unhappy ex-couple Ruby and Billy Crankovitch, how to keep getting booze across the border in the middle of winter without killing himself in the process, as well as how to help two politicians manage their careers and help Milo out in the process.
But those problems also go on the back burner when an undercover agent from the Prohibition Unit shows up in town threatening to put Milo and his colleagues away for a very long time. And all of Milo's creativity and cunning are put to the test as he is forced to juggle a seemingly endless list of problems that would drive a lesser man to drink.
All the characters from the first installment in the series are back and up to their old tricks, and by the time Volume 2 wraps up, readers will have been on taken a wild ride that will leave them scratching their heads about Milo's ability to think his way through a complex set of challenges and laughing out loud.
