Across the river from this quiet burg is a row of saloons, and Maude, a feisty octogenarian, believes something doesn’t feel right. Along with a young physician named Adam, Maude is beginning to think the so-called saloons are actually havens for unsavory and illegal activities. This collection of saloons is a blight on the town of Conway, and someone should do something about it.  Why shouldn’t it be old Maude and Adam? Together, they organize a crusade to get the saloons shut down. It’s a moral battle more than anything else, or so they believe. When one of the saloon owners disappears, however, the moral battle becomes a battle to stay alive, despite opposing forces and the predatory Tony Caruso, who holds all the cards.   \u003ci\u003eThe Splendor of Light\u003c\/i\u003e follows Maude and Adam as they continue down the dark path of their crusade. Lives are in danger of being lost; a town is on the verge of collapse. Will Maude and Adam remain steadfast in their cause, despite a predatory and ruthless adversary?
