“Funny and very entertaining” FREUNDIN on The Gin of Life
A Dublin crime writer with German roots, writer’s block, and a love of whiskey stumbles upon a real-life murder case. He begins investigating, including in the environs of the local whiskey brewery, and unwittingly walks into a wasp’s nest.
In the city of Oscar Wilde, James Joyce and Jonathan Swift, there’s suddenly a hunt for a cold-blooded murderer – and, naturally, the opportunity to sample the odd dram or two. Will our hero find his way through it all and back to writing? Is whiskey a definitively Irish drink? ‘A Shot of Whiskey’ will reveal all.
With a twinkle in his eye and a wealth of knowledge, bestselling author Carsten Sebastian Henn trains his eye on Dublin, the city of drinking writers and writing drinkers, whiskey, a true gentleman’s drink, and a gripping crime case. Entertaining, highly amusing, and compelling.
