AWARD WINNING AUTHOR
A searing, swashbuckling Civil War historical novel...Brutal, eloquent, impeccably researched...immediately immersive...1862, on the eve of the Civil War, a sadistic slave trader brutally murders a beautiful young woman. Once disinterested in war, a soft-handed academic vows vengeance, enlisting in an elite company of scouts and snipers assigned to wipe out Confederate 'bushwhackers, ' men who cloak their depravities in the bitter partisan warfare roaring through Tennessee. He must become a warrior to survive the bloody battlefields of The South in pursuit of the killer, now a colonel in Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest's rampaging cavalry corps.
This is a historical fiction epic enjoyable from start to finish... Manhattan Book Review
