Genevieve
Davis casts a searching look at her own family, the era, and the colorful
criminal wastrels who hid out in the Wisconsin wilds and uncovers the startling
ending chapter to an 90-year-old mystery and brings final closure to an
unfinished, haunting story.
Buried in the many myths and
folklore surrounding notorious Chicago gangland history from the era of the old
South Side "Levee" brothel district, spanning the bloody Prohibition
Wars of the 1920s, lies the hidden, mostly forgotten "shadow stories"
of the era - intensely personal
family stories evoking the terrible human toll exacted on ordinary people,
caught in the web of organized criminality in the Midwest, tracing a path of
wrong doing from Chicago's crime-ridden sin streets deep to the not-so-pastoral
North Woods of Wisconsin.
