Overview

Bourbon & Betrayal By JN Nartey In the heart of Kentucky's bourbon-soaked aristocracy lies a secret darker than charred oak barrels and more potent than cask strength whiskey. Federal Judge Margaret Whitmore Blackstone is poised to become the youngest woman ever nominated to the U.S. Supreme Court. But when a documentary filmmaker begins probing the cold case of Jazz Washington-a brilliant, idealistic Black student murdered 25 years ago-Maggie's perfectly aged legacy threatens to unravel. The investigation awakens old secrets buried by her powerful Southern family-secrets involving institutional cover-ups, sexual assault, and systematic murder meant to protect privilege at any cost. As four women-Maggie, a university president, a tech mogul, a country music icon, and a museum director-confront their shared complicity and long-suppressed guilt, they must choose between preserving their power or honoring the friend they betrayed. With the walls of elite institutions crumbling under the weight of truth, Bourbon & Betrayal is a searing, multi-layered thriller that exposes how far American institutions will go to protect themselves-and the women courageous enough to bring them down. Part Scandal, part The Secret History, and part The Me You Can't See, this explosive novel blends Southern Gothic, political intrigue, and feminist reckoning into an unforgettable cocktail of justice, memory, and redemption.
