A fictionalized historical novel based on true events, The Good Neighbors takes place in the late 1920's. Driven from their life as Oklahoma sharecroppers, the Dacias, a Romanian immigrant family, embarks on a team-and-wagon journey across the Great Plains in search of a new life and a farm of their own. They settle in South Dakota, only to have their dreams and lives threatened by Chicago gangsters, displaced bootleggers with plans of their own. This story is about the American dream, and how immigrants must often struggle to overcome violence, crime and bigotry.
