Must Read! If you have been binging on crime fiction, especially the mobster ones, you'll enjoy Whiskey Widow. No doubt about that. -Kennedy Odindo, Reedsy Discovery

The year was 1932. It was the height of prohibition and smack in the middle of the Great Depression. Organized crime has flocked to Arkansas. Even the famed Al Capone has been known to frequent the Arlington Hotel and Ohio Club in Hot Springs, Arkansas. The Vegas, before Vegas.

Charlotte Crane, a young wife of 23, lives with her husband, Jackson, in the quiet town of Woodland Heights, Arkansas, near the Ouachita Forest, in Southwest Arkansas. Despite having no formal education, Charlotte is considered a master mechanic; having been taught by one of the best engineers in Dallas, and then sent to the school of hard knocks by working for her dad in his machine shop. The Depression is killing her and Jackson's own auto shop that they opened in Woodland Heights. Jackson takes the chance to run a cord of liquor to help pay the bills. The drop goes south, setting Charlotte on the never-ending vendetta to topple Alec Donoghue, the gangster who rules over Woodland Heights. In doing so, she will become the most revered bootlegger in the state, and the most feared crime boss on her side of the Mason-Dixon.
