Bootlegger’s Notebook
Kevin fondly recalls spending time as a kid with his very wealthy Great Uncle Mike. Sifting through a box of old books, Kevin came across a small, leather-bound journal of his. Inside, were handwritten instructions for making large quantities of liquor. Kevin wonders if his uncle earned his money as a Prohibition era bootlegger. He asks Elyse to find the facts behind this mysterious journal.
