It's the summer of 1928 and Prohibition is in full swing. Rum running along Lake Erie's southern shore is as hot as Atlantic's Rum Row. When Rusty loses his job as a Lake Erie tugboat deckhand and cannot find work to support those he loves, he desperately turns to rum running for the mysterious Trapani clan. As he slips into the underground world of rum running, he comes to realize he is losing far more than his principles- he is jeopardizing his marriage and his life. An action-packed novel of love, loyalty and revenge, RUM RUN transports the reader onto the waters of Lake Erie and into the underground world of Prohibition.
