Thrillers (psychological, international, etc) or mysteries where the hero or heroine has a problem with alcohol, and other characters recognize it's a problem (ie, not just somebody like James Bond whose drinking doesn't seem to bother anybody). Fiction only. Do not include recovered/rehabilitated characters.
