Description
“In the first pages of Rum Running Queen, I could smell the broken earth, hear the sound of the tractor, and know the compelling characters who would become friends. This book is a hard and fruitful journey you will want to take. Every step was a pleasure.” –Scott Hammond, author of Finding Asher
During Prohibition, Rum Running Queen Willie Carter Sharpe rises from poverty to the heights of fame and fortune in the moonshine business. In spite of her high-speed trick driving, the law catches up to her. When she is brought to testify in the Great Moonshine Conspiracy Trial of 1934, she realizes she is a target for both sides of the law with no place to hide.
