For everyone nostalgic for the Obama/ Biden administration, HOPE NEVER DIES re-casts the president & vice-president as amateur sleuths in a quirky mystery-adventure. He s an honest man in a city of thieves. He has no patience for guff, foolishness, or malarkey. He is United States Vice President Joe Biden. & when his favorite railroad conductor dies in a suspicious accident leaving behind an ailing wife & a trail of clues Amtrak Joe unwittingly finds himself in the role of a private investigator. To crack the case (and uncover a drug-smuggling ring hiding in plain sight), he`ll team up with the only man he s ever fully trusted the 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama. Together they ll plumb the darkest corners of Wilmington, Delaware, where enemies lurk around every corner. & if they re not careful, the blood on the tracks may be their own. This quirky, comic mystery begins six months after the 2016 presidential election, as Obama & Biden are struggling to define their post-White House identities & question what truly remains of their legendary bromance.

The original India Pale Ale was pure gold in a glass; a semi-mythical beer specially invented, in the 19th century, to travel halfway around the world, through storms & tropical sunshine, & arrive in perfect condition for a long, cold drink on an Indian verandah. But although you can still buy beers with `IPA` on the label they are, to be frank, a pale imitation of the original. For the first time in 140 years, a keg of Burton IPA has been brewed with the original recipe for a voyage to India by canal & tall ship, around the Cape of Good Hope; & the man carrying it is the award-winning Pete Brown, Britain`s best beer write. Brazilian pirates & Iranian customs officials lie ahead, but will he even make it that far, have fallen in the canal just a few miles out of Burton? & if Pete does make it to the other side of the world with ` Barry` the barrel, one question remains: what will the real IPA taste like? Weaving first-class travel writing with assured comedy, ” Hops & Glory” is both a rollicking, raucous history of the Raj & a wonderfully entertaining, groundbreaking experiment to recreate the finest beer ever produced. ...
