They thought she was finished.
After building an empire in a man’s world, surviving death, fire, and prohibition itself, one woman’s legacy stood on the edge of collapse—not because of bad business or market forces, but because someone knocked at her door in the dead of night with a fist full of warrants and a thirst for destruction. What followed wasn’t just a legal trial—it was a full-scale reckoning. And at the center of it all: a woman whose name carried the weight of both scandal and defiance.
In this gripping second chapter, we go beyond bourbon barrels and boardrooms, into the shadows of courtroom intrigue, betrayal, and international reinvention. When her enemies thought they had her cornered, she didn’t just fight back—she rewrote the rules. This is the untold journey of a woman who defied the government, crossed borders, faced down fire, and earned a title no one could ever take from her. Buckle up—because this time, the stakes are life, legacy… and liquor.
