Holy Tequila!

About the Book

A dirty mortgage broker is on a one way run to Mexico to end his life. But when he is swindled into buying a dilapidated distillery in Tequila, his plans may have to change. His life is suddenly overtaken by characters both magical and mundane - An ageless hero of the Mexican revolution, who fights astride an otherworldly old steed; a purveyor of sacred piss named Pepe; an East Indian artist escaping a bleak life in the United States who finds himself perpetually mistaken for a native Mexican; the gorgeous daughter of a Mafioso who is on the run from her own father, and most importantly, the Apostles – an ascetic group of twelve men who live in the agave fields, doing only the sacred duty God has called upon them to do, the work of doing no work. Magic, mayhem, mystery and murder ensue at the little rustic hacienda in the hills of Tequila.
