Perfect for fans of espionage thrillers, historical fiction, and indefatigable female protagonistsβ Molly Fergusonβs comfortable life unravels when her Louisiana home is burned to the ground, her family murdered, and she is enslaved in a Baltimore brothel. Amidst the threat of the Civil War, Molly learns of secessionist plans to assassinate President-elect Abraham Lincoln as he makes his way to Washington for his inauguration. Sheβs manages to pass this information on to a Pinkerton agent posing as a client. Impressed with her fortitude and intelligence, the Pinkerton Agency arranges for Mollyβs freedom and brings her under the tutelage of Mrs. Kate Warne, Americaβs first female detective. After they save Mr. Lincoln in Baltimore, Molly is sent by the Pinkerton Agency into the Deep Southβwhere the Civil War now ragesβa spy behind enemy lines. Molly threads a thin line between revenge and redemption as she races to unravel a sinister plan that will doom the Union and allow the Confederacy to win the Civil Warβwhile coming face to face with the demons from her tragic past.
