In the dimly lit streets of Bridgeton, a war is brewing between those who crave a drink and those who enforce the law. Sixty business and professional men, determined to keep their city dry, have banded together to ensure the antiliquor laws are upheld. But what’s the real reason behind their fervor? Some say it’s the moral high ground, while others whisper about the secret deals and backroom negotiations that have fueled this crusade. One thing is certain: in a city where the line between right and wrong is often blurred, the liquor law enforcers are taking no prisoners.
