It is the early 1920s in the United States-the time of Prohibition. A nationwide constitutional ban on the sale, production, importation, and transportation of alcoholic beverages is in effect. Brothers Don Lane and Rick Lane are professional rum-runners and bootleggers: they smuggle and transport alcoholic beverages by sea and land to supply and sell booze-whiskey, gin, brandy, wine, beer, rum, and moonshine-to speakeasies. The money is good, but the job is dangerous. Don, the elder of the two brothers, keeps the operation in check and tries to stay a step ahead of the police, the coast guard, rival gangs, and the mafia in order to keep his business profitable while also keeping his younger brother and their gang safe and alive-even if that means gunning a few people down. Rick, although a good sibling and businessman, is caught up in his favorite pastime: womanizing. Don, though, meets Barbara and is smitten by her. Now he must juggle running a business, taking care of his brother, leading his gang, and spending time with the love of his life. Don has always talked of saving enough money so he could leave his profitable but illegal and deadly job after a few years. But will he manage to do just that before it's too late?
