Owney Madden, gangster, and Cotton Club owner, steps up with a plan to take down Rothstein as part of a bigger plot to defeat the tyranny of powerhouse political organization Tammany Hall. Harlem Rhapsody transports you right into the turbulent decade from 1927-1937, from Duke Ellington's debut at the Cotton Club, to the unsolved murder of Rothstein...and the machinations of a secret organization known as The Volunteers.

Et omnia recta - to make things right. In the late 1800s, a secret society was formed by a captain from Teddy Roosevelt’s Rough Riders with the support of the nation’s leading industrialists and bankers. Over a century later, the tradition continues in the same saloons and boardrooms of New York City, where it all began. In this crime thriller, where history and current events unite, Woodbury Kane, Jacob Riis, and Roosevelt himself fight the tyranny of Tammany Hall in the first mission of the volunteers during the turn of the last century.
