Speakeasy

As Prohibition neared its end, Anna Lyla Timmons flaunted her red hair, lifestyle and business practices in Salem, Ohio.  With the whispering of her name, many adversaries entered her speakeasy while others schemed against her.  Lyla, a self-made reliant woman in her forties, dismissed their hatred as child's play until one evening those whom she most trusted defiled her - changing all of their lives forever.
