James McParlan is an operative working for the Pinkerton Detective Agency, who is hired by a major coal company to infiltrate and expose an underground terrorist organization, the "Molly Maguires". The Mollies operate within the impoverished mining communities of Pennsylvania and are mostly Irish emigrants. McParlan is selected to infiltrate the organization to pose as a new member, but it quickly becomes apparent that the working conditions are truly wretched. The lawman's loyalties become divided between the law and his fellow countrymen.
"A story of the secret society of militant coal miners; based on an actual account of the Irish-American miners' struggle. Rated PG."
"The Molly Maguires were a secret society of militant coal miners who battled their exploitation by mine owners with violence, intimidation, and sometimes murder. Based on actual events of the 1870's in Pennsylvania, the story is a sympathetic and accurate account of the Irish-American miner's struggle."

Basada en hecho reales, esta apasionante y compasiva historia muestra de manera fiel la lucha de los mineros americano-irlandeses."--Contenedor."
