Beyond The Roaring Falls

By Jean Hackensmith

A House Divided. A Legacy Under Siege.
The Wachsmann Family Dairy Farm in Superior, Wisconsin, has become an island. Strangled by a ruthless state quarantine, brothers Cole and Evan are forced to dump 180 gallons of pasteurized milk twice a day into a ditch under the indifferent eye of Sheriff M.J. McGuire.

But the blockade is only the beginning of the nightmare. Inside the house, Cole's four-year-old daughter, Kathleen, is fighting polio and the damage of antiquated medical treatments. To save her from permanent deformity, the family must execute a high-stakes midnight raid on a guarded rail yard to smuggle custom steel brace components past the law.

As the financial stranglehold tightens and the local bank prepares to foreclose over an $85.00 delinquency, a clandestine resistance ignites. The local Suffrage League launches a successful midnight supply network-until the Sheriff retaliates by trapping fourteen of the women on the property to crush their movement before the historic November election. Following a sudden family tragedy, the boundary line becomes a fierce public battleground for constitutional law, a family's survival, and a little girl's first triumphant steps.
