The Drive
It's 1974, and Richard Molfer has just started his own labor consulting firm and zeroed in on his first client: a hospital in Elizabeth, New Jersey. A union drive is about to start here, the employees are already organizing, and administrators are terrified. But Molfer, a seasoned veteran of hardcore union fights in the mines of Utah, has a plan. He's going to divide and conquer the staff, and make sure Local 1199 never sets foot in that hospital—all for a price, of course. Little does he know that he's about to meet his greatest protegee, a young man with an uncanny gift for gaining trust, and that blood will be spilled before this drive is over. A fictional story inspired by true events.
