This is the last untold battle of the Civil War... the war of spies and espionage, of ciphers and codes, of dangerous undercover work
deep behind enemy lines. Following the lives of 2 couples, intermingling with historical figures, Jakes takes the reader from the political halls of Washington to the battlefields of Virginia, from the horrors of a Confederate prison to the sudden violence of the New York draft riots, from the inner workings of a vast conspiracy to the formation of the Secret Service.A very moving story!
