Bourbon, Distilled in Murder and MayhemWhat's more Kentucky than that? A Boston debutante joins the Appalachian Frontier Nursing Service and saves a wounded moonshiner Two young malcontents burglarize the home of their bourbon-magnate employer, leading to a twist of fate Bourbon with a Splash of Mystery from the Derby Rotten Scoundrels is an anthology that celebrates Kentucky's finest spirit: Bourbon. Ranging from historical adventure to gritty realism, the eighteen crime stories included in this anthology are all fermented in the history and culture of Kentucky bourbon, distilled through the imaginations of our authors. Interwoven with the stories are articles covering the history of bourbon, from Prohibition, moonshining, and medicinal alcohol, to profiles of distilleries and the booming Whiskey Row district in downtown Louisville. Who Are the Derby Rotten Scoundrels? We are an eclectic group of writers (and readers) who get together to share our writing. Our group was formed in 1992, starting as primarily a reading club. Over time we became more focused on writers, especially new writers, and how to help them hone their skills and get published. In 2004, the chapter published its first anthology, Derby Rotten Scoundrels, short stories of murder and crime centered around the Kentucky Derby. Two years later, a second anthology, Low Down and Derby, was published.

A Good Morning America Book Club Pick! • A bighearted novel with technicolor characters, plenty of Texas swagger, and a powder keg of a plot in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology. For fans of Madeline Miller's Circe: "The Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut" (Oprah Daily). The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brother's wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms. Her husband's own past affairs have made her tired of being the long-suffering spouse. Is it, perhaps, time for a change? Within days of March's arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of alliances are shattered. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, Texas cleverly weaves elements of classical mythology into a thoroughly modern family saga, rich in drama and psychological complexity. After all, at some point, don't we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love?
