The Bootlegger's Nephew

A Prohibition Mystery

Doctor Earl "Illinois" Junker practices family medicine in the little town of Big Grove, Illinois, during Prohibition. Usually, Doc Junker deals with nothing more complicated than pregnancies and farm accidents, but lately, he's been seeing a lot of sickness due to homemade hooch.

One night, the drunken victim of a gunshot wound arrives at his front door. The incident begins a chain of events that pulls Junker, his German wife, and his flapper daughter into conflict with a local gang of bootleggers. Who is the ringleader who is producing toxic brews that are poisoning the inhabitants of Big Grove?
