When is a bootlegger like Batman?

Bitter Spirits (Roaring Twenties) - Jenn Bennett

"I knew going in that a bootlegging hero was probably going to have to kill someone. Not every rumrunner forbade guns like Seattle’s Roy Olmstead, though I suspect that’s partly who Bitter Spirits hero Winter Magnusson was based on. And there’s definitely room in romantic heroism for killing: Han shot first, after all. So I wasn’t surprised when the book revealed that Winter has a few deaths on his conscience.

 

"I was a little surprised that one of them was his wife, though."
