Mystery Historical
Hailed by the Civil War Book Review as “inspired,”
Michael Kilian’s series of Civil War Mysteries “entertains
and educates at the same time.” His newest novel finds
U.S. Federal Agent Harrison Raines far from his Virginia
home as the latest battle of the Civil War erupts in the
west. . .
Dispatched to the territory of New Mexico, Harry Raines
and his partner Joseph “Boston” Leahy have been assigned
to uncover how the Confederate Nation plans to expand its
domain all the way west to California. Awaiting their
arrival in Santa Fe is their contact Don Luis Almaden y
Cortes, the Union army’s key asset in its struggle to stop
the Rebels at Glorieta Pass.
Separated from Leahy, Harry makes his own way to Santa Fe,
only to discover that Almaden has been murdered—and his
partner stands accused of the crime. Now, with the help of
Almaden’s striking, strong-willed daughter, and an Indian
scout he befriended in the desert, Harry must root out the
real killer, clear Leahy’s name, and gather the
intelligence Almaden had that was vital to the Union cause…
