Description
In the roaring 1920s, Prohibition fuels a world of speakeasies, rumrunners, and ruthless ambition. Joe Coughlin, the rebellious son of a Boston police captain, rejects his privileged upbringing to plunge headfirst into the violent underworld. His ascent through the ranks of organized crime takes him from the gritty streets of Boston to the sun-drenched, yet equally perilous, landscapes of Cuba. As Joe navigates a treacherous path paved with illegal liquor, betrayal, and escalating violence, he discovers that the pursuit of the American dream comes at a steep and often deadly cost.
