(3) YA To support his family after his father's death, nineteen-year-old Owen (Frozen) seeks help from a local businessman and bootlegger in their Prohibition-era Minnesota town. But Owen finds himself vastly unprepared for the perils of organized crime. Inspired by true events (per the author's note), this is a nuanced look at a tumultuous era through the eyes of an earnest and innocent protagonist. Reading list.
