The Red Road Publisher's summary

There’s no greater duty than family…

In the heart of rural Maine, in the midst of the Great Depression and the final year of Prohibition, the McGinn family stands at a crossroads. The bond between Alder, Finn, and Lewin McGinn, the oldest sons of a widowed mother raising twelve children, is about to be tested in ways they could never have imagined.

Their central desire is to seek justice for their brother Jim's mysterious killing, but the primary challenge lies in the fact that the local authorities lack the evidence to bring anyone to justice. With their small, close-knit community paralyzed by fear, the McGinn brothers take it upon themselves to unravel the truth, even if it means taking the law into their own hands.

As the Morelands, the wealthiest family in town, reveal themselves as the primary villains in this historical family saga, a twist emerges that elevates the stakes even higher. The Morelands are not just influential landowners; they are also the major bootleggers in the area, orchestrating a sprawling empire under the shadow of Prohibition.

June 1933 sets the stage for a climactic showdown in Central Maine, where the McGinns and the Morelands vie for power, justice, and survival. Agent Knox from the Bureau of Prohibition adds another layer of complexity to the already tense atmosphere, as he seeks to put an end to the illegal booze trade that has gripped the region.

"The Red Road" is not just a tale of survival and trust but a profound exploration of family bonds and the sacrifices one makes when duty calls. As the McGinn brothers devise a plan to bring down the Moreland empire, they face a moral dilemma - what lengths are they willing to go to for the sake of justice?
